Anyone catch the IBF lightweight boxing world title last weekend? Good fight--Leavander Johnson went down in round 11. Unfortunately, the fight bruised his brain that he died in the hospital on Thursday. sad.gif Those lightweight titles are pretty rough sometimes--another boxer, a super lightweight, died in July.

I guess boxing's a pretty rough sport sometimes...

Anyway, if you're interested, you can read about the fight here: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/9379233/

He was doing alright until he took a flurry of blows in the 11th round. He walked around the ring fine after going down but collapsed on the way back to his locker room.
