    "editor1": "Willie Limond: Former British and Commonwealth super-lightweight champion Willie Limond has died at the age of 45, a week after suffering a suspected seizure while driving near Glasgow. Limond was rushed to hospital after being discovered unresponsive in his car. He was due to take part in a public training session in Glasgow.\n<p>In a post on social media, his son Jake said, \"Dad passed away in the early hours of the morning. He fought on for nearly enough 10 days. Warrior.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Limond last faced fellow countryman Ricky Burns in September and was scheduled to have his return fight in Glasgow on May 3 against Joe Laws. From 1999 to 2023, the Glaswegian won 42 of his 48 professional fights, including 13 by knockout; however, just three of those fights occurred after 2016.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Four of Limond's six defeats were against fighters who won world titles -- Amir Khan, Anthony Crolla, Erik Morales, and Ricky Burns. During his boxing career, he won the Commonwealth light-welterweight, WBU lightweight, IBO Inter-Continental lightweight, and British super-featherweight, lightweight, and super-lightweight titles.<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
