Paul Bamba, a professional boxer from Puerto Rico, has died at the age of 35, just six days after winning the WBA Gold Cruiserweight title. Bamba's manager, the R&B singer Ne-Yo, announced his passing on social media. The cause of death was not disclosed. Bamba had an impressive year in 2024, achieving 14 knockouts in as many fights, surpassing Mike Tyson's record for the most fights in a year.
