Heavyweight Cody Koch died in a brawl with cops and bouncers, though I don't think any charges where ever brought.

Think you want the murdered
by boxers thread.
I wonder if we'll ever find out what happened. So much doesn't add up.
Although rumours also abound that the Krays did him.
Murder is a funny old one, horrific and makes the blood run cold and none of us know how we will go and any one of us could end that way, at the hand of someone else. Tragic to be fit and well and taken that way. Could happen to anyone, my partners mum was murdered in rural Cornwall 20 years ago by a suspected and never caught serial killer. This is a peaceful, leave your back door open, know everyone for miles around type of area. Brutally murdered walking her dog in a country lane.

Not an awful lot more one can say mate, found next to a gate post having been assaulted, stabbed, beaten and no suspects ever caught. DNA found but never been a match. 20 years this October.

Jimmy Wilde was murdered.
I've never heard that before bennie -what's the story there?
He was mugged at Cardiff railway station as an old man (in his 70s) by at least two scumbags and maybe more. Sadly, they cabbaged him and he died a few years later.

Former world flyweight champion, Jackie Paterson, stabbed in the throat with a bottle in a fight in South Africa - over a heated boxing argument that turned nasty apparently.

The Sergei Kobozev one was nasty...Russian mafia
Yeah great call this. I was looking up about Tommy Gallagher the other day and it reminded me of Kobozev. Avtandil Khurtsidze could end up the same way!

Eleonico Mercedes was shot dead at 28.
Think a army officer shot him after his car clipped his car.
WBC flyweight champ who lost to Magri.
