Chop wounds to the head?

Tough day for sudden deaths in sports. First the news about Joe Niekro, and then this morning former heavyweight champ Trevor Berbick was found dead in his native Jamaica. The police are treating the death as a homocide, because Berbick evidently died of "chop wounds to the head."

Other than briefly holding the WBC belt, Berbick had two claims to fame - as the last man to fight Ali, and as the man who made the 20-year-old Mike Tyson the youngest heavyweight champion in history, courtesy of the devastating second-round KO Tyson laid on him in 1986.
