probably several items that contribute to their somewhat early demise and death.
Kenny was a boxer, so for better than 25 years he was getting the piss pounded out of his head.
The physical toll of most sports will take a toll eventually

They live the "high" life in more ways than one and also contributes.
As we learn more and more about the effects of brain trama and just what a few concussions can do to one's life is becoming very troubling.


RIP Ken
Those were sure the glory days of boxing.
RIP Ken! Tough Mudder
Showed Ali who the "greatest" really was.
At that time at least.
