David Rodriguez - Heavy Weight Champ Becomes Suicidal and Wants to Die

He was an undefeated boxer with a knockout punch, 36-0, and headed for the heavyweight championship of the world—until an attempted murder left him with hundreds of stitches in his throat, a permanently scarred face, and a broken spirit. Now, David Rodriguez tells of his journey back from the brink of despair. With a no-holds-barred style that reflects his boxer's craft, Rodriguez reveals the thorny, turbulent past that pushed him not only to the forefront of his sport, but also into destructive behavior, addiction, and thoughts of suicide—and ultimately to redemption as an advocate for bullied kids.Show more

Bio: Rodriguez had a previously unblemished record of 36-0 with 34 by knockout. His first-round knockout ratio surpassed every heavyweight in history to date. After suffering a life-altering knife attack to his throat, his comeback was not successful. His career ended with a 37–2 record. The two losses occurred back to back after the near-death incident. David Rodriguez held the Texas Heavyweight title, New Mexico Heavyweight title, NABU Heavyweight title, NABA Heavyweight title as well as two of the WBC belts. Rodriguez is now an anti-bullying key note speaker and best-selling author of the book "When The Lights Go Out". After 16 months of retirement, Nino finally returned November 21, 2015, with a 42-second 1st round win KO over Miguel Domingues of Brazil 23–4 with 21 knockouts. Rodriguez has not since stepped back into the ring due to chronic back issues. Rodriguez is now seen occasionally on national television commentating Championship boxing as well as achieving new heights in a completely different arena with his own successful podcast dealing with today’s political and social issues on Ninoscorner.tv
