    That's what I love about these guys. When they are alive, they are "Palookas" and when they die, everyone is sorry.

    Shannon Taylor is still alive last I heard but his machine may be turned off soon.

    "Dazbag" used to post here and was told a story about Taylor knocking somebody out cold outside a night-club with one punch.

    Seems he was always in trouble of some sort.

    Best of luck to him anyways, he'll need it.

    Only time I ever saw him fight is when prime Shane laid a brutal ass whuppin on him.

    Regardless, R.I.P.

    We all give our respect to boxers when they die. it's almost like our duty, as fans, irregardless of what sort of cunts they were.

    Yup, that's his only claim to fame, and a dubious one at that. This occured at the peak of Shane's overrating.

    Always sad when a member of the global boxing family dies though.

    Is he dead? I keep hearing he is still alive. Y'all too fast to write him off. He needs to hook up with Kevin Rooney, he'll make it.

    Yeah I heard he is still alive.

    As for the drug I couldn't find anything on it.

    Probably coke. He didn't seem like a smack-head.

    you really have to do a lot of coke to overdose...he was probably popping prescription drugs as well that combo usually does it.

    Ugh. Even in the middle of a R.I.P. to a fighter, you find time to insert agenda stuff.

    Mosley did fight some utter dross at 147 after Oscar. Shannon Taylor and Adrian Stone were some scrubbish contenders in any era.

    As usual you miss the point. It's not necessary to take shots at another fighter in a R.I.P. topic for another. But whatever...it's not like you have any boundaries.

    Whereas using it as an opportunity to reopen a perennial feud (/personal obsession) is clearly the high road.
