Im just converting a tape with this kid fighting. Then noticed he was dead at 34 years old. Further googling I found that he was killed by another bloke after a game of cards. The dispute was over a poster that the killer had took from one of Quiroga's friends.
Not a bad boxer only losing his last 2 fights. Amazing how many boxers you didn't know had died are dead.

He didnt die from injuries in that fight mate. He recovered but was deported to nigeria for drug trafficing. He died over there, reports are sketchy but sounds like a boxing match over in nigerialittlepug wrote:Cracking fight, a tragedy he died from injuries sustain in it .
