His death was recorded.

His opponent gave him two blows to the chest and a kick, after which, the Air Prince of the Mexican fight, collapsed on the canvas.

Príncipe Volador, Puma de Oro, Brazo de Oro Jr. and Redimio faced each other.

It was Saturday afternoon, at the San Juan Pantitlán Arena in Nezahualcóyotl, a town a few kilometers from the capital.

Both the organizers and the doctors confirmed hours after the event that the death of the young man had been due to a fulminant heart attack.

  • The open wounds of Mexican wrestling

He was 23 years old and his name was Luis Ángel Salazar.

He came from a humble family in Iztacalco, a lower-middle-class mayoralty in Mexico City.

He lived with his mother, to whom he professed unconditional love, according to sources close to the world of wrestling, and was not formally married, although he did have a partner.

Both, who could be said to be the two women in his life, were present at the moment when Luis fell, never to get up again.

In life, however, falling and never getting back up was not one of the attitudes that characterized the prince of the fight.

Leo Riano, a boxing, wrestling and mixed martial arts journalist for Televisa, confirms this: “Both in boxing and in wrestling, what drives you forward is hunger.

He was a fighter hungry to succeed and to show what he was capable of ”.

And he adds: "Here in Mexico to be an idol it is not enough just that you know how to make keys and counter keys, but you have to have that touch that not everyone has, that charisma so that people love you."

Luis had enough “angel” and “charisma” to make the audience go crazy with his show.

The world of wrestling is characterized by causing great excitement and exacerbating the low passions of both its spectators and its members, the contenders.

But the show is that, show.

When the Air Prince removed his mask and was simply Louis again, all that fury was behind him.

Javier Camarín, a journalist with more than 30 years of experience in the world of wrestling, describes him as an impeccable person: "He was pleasant, simple, very polite, a person who got up to say hello, always with affection."

With what he earned in the fight, he paid for his university studies.

Some media say that he was getting a degree in accounting, but both Riano and Camarín say that he drew his elbows to be an architect.

What everyone agrees on, after all, is that he wanted to get ahead beyond the world of wrestling.

He did not smoke, he did not drink and he was a great athlete, beyond that, he also liked motorcycles.

"He liked to walk with his own, like any kid addicted to adrenaline," explains Camarín, who was present last Saturday, when the Prince dropped like that on his own weight: "I knew something was wrong."

This journalist thinks that since it was a heart attack, it could be due to some previous ailment that had gone unnoticed.

His career was very promising, he had worked in the Elite League, and his matches had been broadcast on television on both Televisa and TV Azteca.

"It was starting to shine," ditch Riano.

And Camarín adds: "At 28 or 30 he could have been a figure in this world of struggle."

This was

Prince

Luis, a young man in his twenties who was beginning to shine and shine with force, familiar, pleasant and generous, and at the same time capable of giving a great show when he put on his mask.

On Saturday, suddenly and without warning, its brightness faded.
