Heavyweight Rone Dies in Utah Ring

Monday July 21, 2003
Bradley Rone, 34, collapsed and died after the first round in a bout with Billy Zumbrun in Cedar City, Utah. Rone, a former sparring partner of both Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield, accepted the offer to compete in the fight just one day earlier -- the same day his mother died of heart failure in Cincinnati. The offical cause of death has yet to be determined.
