![Kronk fighter Mickey Goodwin (right) was found dead by Detroit police on Tuesday as the result of a stroke. He was just 51 years old. He is remembered fondly by many in this article, including a 15-year old boy he was coaching. The news hit the Detroit boxing community very hard. Said Jeff Bowdler, "He's our Mickey Goodwin. We won't forget him." Bowdler plans to keep the River Rouge Boxing Club open.
Emanuel Steward said Goodwin had "one of the most vicious punches [they] ever had at Kronk," which is saying something.
Rest in peace, Mickey.](http://cdn2.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/35653/capt.996d499eb12d46b68d011d7baaab7f4a.boxer_slain_boxing_dt201_small.jpg)
