Photos: Family Of Mudered Puerto Rican Boxer Prop Up His Corpse In A Boxing Ring For Wake


The body of 23-year-old boxer Christopher Rivera, who was shot to death on Sunday, is propped up in a fake boxing ring during his wake in San Juan, Puerto Rico on Friday.
Even in death, Christopher Rivera Amaro almost looked ready to box, leaning against the corner of a simulated ring. He looks real right?. 
This is because his family wanted him to be remembered as a boxer so the funeral home suggested posing him in the ring. The funeral home has staged similar wakes for others. One featured a deceased man riding his motorcycle.

 Hundreds of mourners who came to his wake at the community recreation center found him posed in the ring, with a yellow hood on his head, sunglasses glasses over his eyes and blue boxing gloves on his hands.
