Yeah found a news report. Seems he was hit crossing the road.

Yes, just heard. Terrible news. RIP Pernell

RIP.

Shame, RIP

f*cking hell.

RIP.

Tragic RIP

Terrible news and now confirmed by mainstream media outlets too

I'm gutted. Horrible news. One of my favs of all time. Hit by a car no less. RIP champ.

Terrible news. Done so much for boxing and has fully reaped the rewards in retirement. goes to show let every day count.

RIP Sweet Pea

Oh no.

One of the greats

Just listened to the 5 live podcast with an add on by Costello at the start - stunned.

RIP Sweet Pea.

Horrible news. Some fighter was Whitaker

Man this is crap news to read.

First defeat an awful decision in his first title fight, later avenged. One draw as we all know was another shocking decision (against one of the greatest of all time) then three defeats in final four fights.

Take out the two stinkers and he’s unbeaten and nearly untouchable until the very end

RIP champ.

I always felt he beat DeLaHoya, to be perfectly honest.

RIP, champ.

RIP champ. Probably the best defence since Nicolino Locche. Gone way too young.

Awful news.

He was so good in his pomp that him even being tagged a few times was news in a fight. Incredible talent.

so sad, genuine boxing legend.

RIP champ gone too soon

God bless Champ. Rest In Peace.

Great fighter, rip
