By Perry

Junior middleweight boxer Ronney Vargas was gunned down over the weekend in Bronx, NY after a dispute with a group of men, the Associated Press is reporting.

Vargas, 20, was an up and coming boxer that started his career as a professional at 8-0.  Ronney was also a three-time Golden Gloves champion. 

“He had a future,” said his distraught father, German Vargas, 52. “They didn’t just kill a boxer, they killed a champ.”

Reports say that he was pistol whipped and then shot in the chest in his car.
