Arturo Gatti dead

On his honey moon with his wife and 10 month old kid.
Sad he had some really great fights in his career.

RIP

Police investigator Edilson Alves told The Associated Press that the body of the former junior welterweight champ was discovered in his hotel room at the tourist resort, where Gatti had arrived on Friday with his Brazilian wife Amanda and 1-year-old son.

SAO PAULO — The wife of former boxing champion Arturo Gatti was detained as a suspect by Brazilian authorities Sunday following his death at a posh seaside resort.
Police said 23-year-old Amanda Rodrigues was taken into custody after contradictions in her interrogation.
Gatti's body was found early Saturday in a hotel room at the Porto de Galinhas resort in northeastern Brazil.
The former junior welterweight champion was apparently strangled with the strap of a purse, which was found at the scene with blood stains, said Milena Saraiva, a spokeswoman for the Pernambuco state civil police.
She told The Associated Press that the Canadian also had a head injury.

I was so sad to hear this, he gave us some great fights. Also when reading up on this I saw Alexis Arguello died earlier this month, must have gotten lost in all the MJ news. Two great warriors. RIP
