Another shocking death has hit the MMA community.
UFC veteran Ryan Jimmo was involved in a hit-and-run incident in Edmonton, Canada early Sunday morning and died later that day due to injuries sustained from the incident.
Back in May, Bellator MMA fighter Jordan Parsons was also killed in a hit-and-run incident.
The MMA community reacted in various ways to the untimely death of the 34-year-old that had seven fights with the UFC.
Jimmo was a cool dude, always a pleasure talking to him & had one of the best victory dances. RIP @ryanjimmo pic.twitter.com/vtQtas10IG

Jimmo was a great guy I had the opportunity to train with him a few times. Nothing but good things to say about him. May he rest in peace.
