Tragedy strikes Arum family

Sad news from the state of Washington. After a long search, the body of John Arum, the 49-year-old son of Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum, was found in a rugged part of the Cascade Mountains 85 miles northeast of Seattle. An experienced mountaineer and environmentalist, Arum fell during a solo climb of the 8,515-foot Storm King peak. He had been attempting to climb the 100 highest summits in Washington and had previously scaled 82 of them. Everyone at Fightnews.com sends our thoughts and prayers to the Arum family during this difficult time.
