Lewis was killed Wednesday morning in Newport Beach after the Ferrari he was driving in crashed into a pole and then split into pieces. In reaction to that news, thousands of fans flooded various Internet sites to remember Lewis, and to voice their anger at what some believe was irresponsible driving. There is also a memorial at the crash site on Jamboree Road.
Here is a selection of comments. Feel free to share your own thoughts in our comments section below:. I really enjoyed what I saw of the three owners on their CNBC segment and tv show, and their humble start. My thoughts and prayers go out to Charles and his family as well as the Tapout crew. My thoughts are with his family and hopes are with his girl. They were a loud rowdy bunch, but that is kinda why they made it. I think he built the company up enough to have a long legacy β¦ I just hope they keep up the fighter sponsorship, I know Mask was a huge part of that.
The two pieces had to be 40 yards apart. This really is tragic, and stupid, particularly if they were racing. Tapout and the rest of the MMA world will continue to make you proud. You will never be forgotten and you will be deeply missed. He has always supported fighters and sponsored the little guys so they can put food on the table. He was loud, charismatic, and funny.
He always seemed to be able to make friends with anyone, and bond with anyone in an instant. He and his company cared about the sport of MMA and helped many fighters on their way up. Contact the writer: or npirani ocregister. More in News.
