Yahoo! Sports
Alexis Arguello, a sublimely gifted world champion
in three weight divisions, was a legend inside the ring
who then reinvented himself as a politician in his native
Nicaragua. He held the office of Mayor of Managua when he
was found dead of a gun-shot wound at his home in the early
morning hours on Tuesday, stunning and saddening the
boxing world. Reports out of Nicaragua say he committed suicide.
