Featherweight Oacar Gonzalez (23-3, 14 KO’s) has died just two days after being stopped by Jesus Galica in a fight in Mexico according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.

“These things happen in boxing and nobody expects them to happen in the ring,” Jose “Chepo” Reynoso of Canelo Promotions, which put on the card, told ESPN.com in a statement translated into English. “Even though we weren’t there at the fight we know Oscar did receive the best treatment at the hospital before and after his death. Our lawyer, Anuar Alvarado, took care of the situation and we know we did our best on his behalf.”
