Morre José Adilson Rodrigues dos Santos, o Maguila

Morreu nesta quinta-feira, aos 66 anos, José Adilson Rodrigues dos Santos, asoo grande Maguila, um dos maiores boxeadores da história do Brasil. A informação foi divulgada inicialmente pela TV Record, através do programa Balanço Geral, por Reinaldo Gottino.

O ex-lutador sofria de Encefalopatia traumática crônica, uma doença similar ao mal de Alzheimer, causada por repetitivos golpes na cabeça e afeta, principalmente, ex-atletas de boxe.

Lutou profissionalmente entre 1983 e 2000, realizando ao todo 85 lutas oficiais em 17 anos, com 77 vitórias (sendo 61 por nocaute), sete derrotas e um empate técnico.

Conquistou os títulos brasileiro, sul-americano, latino-americano e das Américas de boxe.

Sua luta mais importante aconteceu em 15 de julho de 1989, quando Maguila, então segundo no ranking do CMB (Conselho Mundial de Boxe), enfrentou o norte-americano Evander Holyfield e foi nocauteado no segundo round.

Recebeu a alcunha “Maguila” por semelhança ao porte físico do personagem Magilla Gorilla, da Hanna-Barbera.

Ele era casado com Irani Pinheiro.
