    Whoa! This is shocking news! No word on cause of death yet. He was only 42!

    Edit- Sherdog is reporting cause of death being related to heart problems, but not sure the source is reliable. It says, this was reported by an associate on his Facebook page. Interesting as he did test positive for steroids in the past. From what I understand, steroid use can cause heart issues.

    Can't say I was a fan myself, but I am sorry he has passed away at such a relatively young age. Rest in peace Kevin Ferguson.

    Cant believe no one has mentioned the new middle weight champion of the world.

    Anyway Kimbo had heart failure. Apparently he was waiting for a transplant.

    They have. I guess you didn't look at the thread titled UFC 199? Which seems a far more appropriate place to discuss that than a thread talking about someone dying.
