Police are now beginning an investigation into the reason why the slain boxer was on the tracks in the first place, which happened close to Fraza’s home in Haverhill.

Fraza was part of the original series of ‘The Contender’ but was diagnosed with Chicken Pox before he was able to fight.

He returned for the second series alongside current and former world champions Cornelius Bundrage and Steve Forbes. Fraza lost in the first round to Nick Acevedo.

That fight was also the last time Fraza stepped through the ropes for a professional boxing match. His professional record was 17-3 with 10 stoppages.
