Promising super-middleweight Connor Law has passed away to the disbelief of the boxing community in the United Kingdom.

The Scot, who was 13-0 as a pro, was well-liked in British circles and was tipped for big things in his chosen profession.

On Monday, news of Law’s tragic death sent shockwaves through clubs up and down the country.

Just days prior, Law had thanked his friends for helping him through what he described as a ‘tough time’.

The sudden passing of Law has since been mourned by those who knew him well and beyond.

Glenrothes Boxing Club released a heartfelt statement on the southpaw, who last fought in May of 2018.

“It’s with the heaviest of hearts Glenrothes Boxing Club mourns the passing of Connor Law. Connor was one of the most talented up and coming boxers with a bright future ahead of him.

“He was nothing short of a true gentleman both inside and outside of the ring. He was a pleasure to train and always made time to help others in the gym.

“Connor was a massive part of the G.B.C family and will be sorely missed.

“Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time. Rest easy champ.”

Scotland’s current superstar and world champion Josh Taylor revealed his anguish at the loss of his ‘good friend’.

“Gutted to hear the terrible news about a good friend of mine & a great guy. Rest in peace brother.”

“Connor Law a talented young gent who was respected by everyone inside and outside the ring. A pleasure to know.”
