Puerto Rican boxer Christopher Rivera was shot and killed last week and pursuant to his last wishes, his family had his body embalmed and placed in a corner of a fake boxing ring.

The funeral home—which has done this sort of thing before—set up the ring in the rec center of his apartment building.
