After moving from the Bahamas to the USA at a young age, Kevin Ferguson started his boxing and MMA career in the late 2000’s but his fame had already unfolded half a decade before.

Fans always found him to be considerate despite his street fighting roots and this created a large following for the fighter online.

The mourning was also met with remembrances for what Kimbo Slice was known for, a hard hitting fighter than was determined to prove himself, even if he was outside the ring.

Fans took to social media upon sad announcement of his death, due to heart failure.
