I was at the MEN the night he beat Kostya Tszyu, hands down the best sporting event I've ever attended. Thanks for the memories, RIP Champ!!!!
All the lads I went with say this as well. The best atmosphere I've ever experienced.

Not suspicious doesn’t mean it can’t be suicidal.
Not suspicious usually means it is suicide
This.
Ah yeah I guess it could mean suicide, they will announce it at some point. Could just have been a heart attack. Sad news.

I also saw him in a hotel in North Shields doing a talk-in hugely over weight and off his face on coke and booze!

What unbelievably sad news! A really warm and likeable person. A tremendous fighter in his pomp, who went in with three of the finest to ever do it (Kostya, Mayweather & Pacquaio).
My condolences to his family and friends.

If it was a heart attack at his age there would be more investigation before saying nothing suspicious

20,000 to Vegas was it? Not to make it a pissing contest but even Joshua does nowhere near that, a true one off, a fan friendly style and the personality to match, feel for Campbell, Matthew etc

In my opinion Ricky was the one responsible for the boxing boom in the 2000's. He really crossed over.
