North Oakville Today has received word that boxer Mike 'Prime Time' Post died this morning.

Police are unable at this time to verify any information surrounding his death.

Post was a champion boxer and most recently worked as the sparing partner of WBA welterweight champion Miguel Cotto.

Post had a record of 17-1-1 with 13 knockouts. His last fight came on May 31, when he won a six-round decision over veteran club fighter Ruben Galvan in Brantford, Ontario.

Bad Left Hook sends our best wishes and condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Post.
