I still can't find a good source for this. Let's hope it's not true. He has had enough problems in the past as it is.

Sanchez was in training camp (for the Laporte rematch) when he died. He was renowned for his discipline in training and the time of his death came as a surprise to his camp. Some say he had snuck out to see a woman and was racing back before anyone would be aware of his absence.
