MONTREAL - Friends and family will gather in Montreal this weekend to pay their final respects to former boxer Arturo Gatti amid reports the former boxing champion may have committed suicide.
A visitation for Gatti will be held Sunday in Montreal, with the funeral service scheduled for Monday morning at Notre Dame De La Defense.
Meanwhile, a Brazilian newspaper reported Saturday that an autopsy performed on Gatti indicates he may have committed suicide.
The Jornal do Comercio newspaper reported the autopsy says Gatti's body was 'suspended and hanged, indicating he may have committed suicide.'
Paula Cysneiros, a spokeswoman for the medical examiners' office, would not confirm the newspaper's report.
Gatti, 37, was found dead in the apartment he was renting with his wife Amanda Rodrigues in the Brazilian seaside resort of Porto de Galinhas last Saturday.
