RIP Paul Mata AKA Zaroku

[$2scrappy$]

He was around 63-64. I know what I was told about his passing, but I cannot say for sure what I was told was true, so it's better not to say.

I feel terrible about this.

RIP Z

It's just kind of odd to trust the source that he died but not how.

Nevertheless R.I.P he got on my nerves honestly but I hope he lived a long satisfying life. Don't wish death on nobody.

Damn. Rest in peace, Z.

When he was missing I had a feeling. Jade was really good about keeping up on this.

[STREET CLEANER]

Damn, I just assumed he got banned from the new AI mods. That's sad to hear. Rest in peace, Z. He was one of a kind.

That is the same I thought because he was such a character.

Rest in peace Z

[GhostofDempsey]

Saddened to hear this. I always liked Z. He was like a crazy uncle everyone humored and joked around with on here, part of the tapestry of Boxing Scene. Rest in peace Paul.

I can’t believe this. First Larry and now Zaroku who I thought of as an Aniki.

Has it been confirmed? I’ve been extremely depressed and this doesn’t help.

[Brother Mouzone]

WOW mane, had a lot of fun interactions w/ Z could not understand 98% of his post but that was the fun .........Rest in peace , prayers to his family ..

Damn i feel bad for always blanking him, he was constantly messaging me accusing me of all kinds of crazy stuff despite never even replying to him! RIP

[-MEGA-]

Awww man. This is so sad RIP Big Z.


I myself recently had a health scare. Nothing Id like to talk about but it seems im on the backend of it and getting better daily. We are all mortal. I love you guys and our community, no matter if we agree on things or disagree.

RIP Zaroku. I didn't know you well, but could tell you were well-liked and personable. I hope you're chilling with our fam up there!
