That's exactly what a hoaxer would say!

I suppose the hoaxer also created hoax FB friends?  Oh and created his niece's FB page too (along with FB friends).  SMH some real dumb asses are being exposed here today.
I'm guessing the people here who just CAN'T wrap their heads around the delay in the person's death and letting others know about it are all under 20 and haven't had the lovely opportunity to experience a parent passing or other close relative.  You may find it 'bizarre' that the first thing on your mind may not be telling the world a pop culture icon is dead prior to making arrangements and getting ducks in a row prior to opening Pandora's Box to the upcoming media frenzy. 

Anyway..... RIP Champ.

Well... RIP.... apparently quite a character. Lived longer than you'd think of a boxer/stand-up comedian.

You along with many others 'weren't sure' when it was obvious.  You needed some independent source besides his DAUGHTER'S FB page, as if.

But that's fine, two hours later you were joking about the prospects of a hoax.  My fucking bad.  Sorry for my ABSURD misinterpretation.

Him and Schleming lived for a combined 197 years, nearly - incredible for boxers, really. RIP to one of the Deathlist legends

And of course they fuck up and say he's 95.  Great editing.  SMH

He was 95.

Even his daughter said so in her Facebook post.

Or do you think she's a liar and hoaxer?

I was sure since the start, I just wanted to add that the new source didn't add any new insight since it was relying on the same Facebook post we already knew. I didn't invent the rules of the Derby Dead Pool, and as they insist on a proper obituary, that's the way it had to be.

I also don't understant the urge to cuss some random guy on the internet, but whatever man.

Cause of death was pneumonia. I hope to see DL updated as soon as they can.

And also Jerry Lewis' cause of death was cardiomyopathy, which is far more accurate than natural causes.

100 (Schmeling in my head) plus 96 (lamotta's "stage age") was closer. But, you know, Maths...

I believe it. Obits just won't arrive until later tonight or tomorrow. 

Jake Lamotta was a very interesting person, and I really want to see his biopic. I heard Robert De Niro did an excellent job of portraying him in the film. 

Not really unexpected, but still sad if true.

Yeah, not unexpected at all. And for me, the really sad thing was seeing him being really frail and not-at-all lucid on that horrible recent photo. At that stage, death could have been a relief for him.

Oh crap. Another one gone. I hope we  don't break a record. I hope we don't have a bunch dying at the end of the year, like we did last year. Given the ages of the people on the list, I think we will break a record, but I pray to G-d that we don't.By the way, I never heard of Jake Lamotta, until reading him on DeathList. A lot of people I never heard of, until this website.

Why are you even here if you don't want to hear/talk about death?
