Mixed martial arts fighter Kimbo Slice, who died Monday at age 42, needed a heart transplant, according to the Sun-Sentinel.
Slice, whose birth name was Kevin Ferguson, had been hospitalized near his home in Coral Springs, Florida, earlier in the day and passed away at 7:30 p.m. ET.
While the official cause of death has not yet been released, he had previously been admitted to the Northwest Medical Center in Margate, Florida, on June 3, complaining of “severe abdominal pain, shortness of breath and nausea,” according to information the hospital reported to Broward County‘s medical examiner’s office.
