Fighter Suicide

Former boxing champ Edwin Valero committed suicide in his jail cell on Monday just hours after he was arrested in his wife's killing, police said.

He hanged himself with his own clothes

very sad... which is why i don't boo fighters. next to the military, it's one of the toughest occupations. (thank you capt. obvious.)

you got the source?

 You seriously feel bad for this asshole after he stabbed his wife to death?  Wow.  I feel bad for his family and her family, for him, nothing but contempt.  Good riddance!

I'm sure he's right next to Corrales getting pineapples up his ass in hell.

Sounds like a purely emotional response with no understanding of the underlying issues.

 
The underlying issue is that he abused the girl for years and ends up stabbing her to death.  I understand just fine Dr. Phil

 

VectorWega - What is the underlying issue for the abuse though?  You sound like the type that would want to burn his body simply out of spite rather than to use it to help determine what may have led to this behavior.

what do you think the underlying issue is? do you think his wife backtalked him too much? bitch had it coming, imo.

Whatever his underlying issues were they are not a license to abuse another human being, especially a woman and especially his wife!  He was an adult and therefore responsible for his own actions.  

I wouldn't bother burning his body.....now if he were alive I'd consider it!

 

Why would someone try to rationalize years of abuse and eventual murder of another individual?

 exacty?  There is nothing rational about it!

kids... i'm not condoning the actions of him killing his wife. the whole thing is tragic. we don't know what he's been through. guess this isn't only limited to fighters. regardless, the whole thing is a sad situation. which is what i meant, ultimately.

hoestly this worked out for the best. one less murderer for tax payers to cover

I say who cares what he's been through. He pointlessly murdered his wife, for that he deserves to die.

Crazy story, Valero was still at the top of his game and frequently fought on HBO.

They should build a pit toilet over his grave along side Corrales.

Such a damn scumbag.

Corrales never killed anyone.

I have heard allegations of spousal abuse,but nothing like what Valero did.

WTF is your problem?

Allegations? He beat his pregnant wife with a shotgun so bad she had spinal fractures and then threw her down the stairs. He took a plea deal.

Lots of boxing scumbags.

I didnt know all of that.

Consider yourself informed.

wow well played Kai..

Kai don't know a fucking thing. You have an opinion. Good for you.

You have no idea what was going on with this guy. Not a clue. You read a couple of newspapers and you think you know somebody. Good for you.

RIP to Valero, his wife, and I wish his children all the best.

This is a terrible tragedy in every sense.

This was a man that was in desperate need of help, and unfortunately didn't receive the treatment that he needed before he did something irreversibly horrible. It's a sad situation all the way around. Obviously my deepest condolences go to the parents of the girl, and the Valero family as well. That said, it's really a terrible shame. Valero was a unique talent, with unlimited potential that will never be realized. We'll never know what he could have become.

All of that said, people are fucking ridiculous, talking shit about people that they don't even know.

I saw that Corrales was negatively mentioned as well... lol. Fuck you!!!!!
