NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- UFC fighter Shane Del Rosario died Monday, nearly two weeks after the heavyweight had a heart attack. He was 30. The UFC and Del Rosarios family announced his death. Del Rosario had been hospitalized in his native Orange County since Nov. 26. "It has been truly amazing to realize just how many lives Shane touched in such a positive way," Del Rosarios family said in a statement released to The Associated Press. "As always, Shane fought hard, but it was his time to go in peace. We will miss his huge smile, his huge bear hugs, his gift of giving to others, and his Aloha spirit. He was larger than life." Del Rosarios manager, Jason House, said the fighters doctors believe he had a congenital heart disorder. Del Rosarios family is interested in starting a charitable foundation to aid research on long QT syndrome, the heart condition that may have contributed to the fighters sudden cardiac arrest last month. Del Rosario had been a professional mixed martial artist since 2006, also competing in kickboxing and muay thai competitions. He was the first American winner of the WBC world heavyweight muay thai championship in 2007. He won his first 11 pro MMA bouts while competing in Strikeforce, M-1 Global and other promotions before moving last year to the UFC, where he lost his first two fights. He was stopped by Stipe Miocic and again by Pat Barry, his final opponent in December 2012. Del Rosario was scheduled to fight at UFC 168 on Dec. 28, but pulled out last month with a rib injury. "RIP to one of the best people Ive ever had the honour to have in my life and call my best friend," UFC flyweight Ian McCall posted on his Twitter account Monday. McCall was Del Rosarios roommate and teammate. Del Rosario trained with Team Oyama in Irvine, Calif., and spent most of his summers with his grandparents in Lanai City, Hawaii. He missed several months of MMA training with a herniated disc after he was struck in a car accident in 2011, but eventually resumed his career. The family said it will honour the fighters desire to be an organ donor. "He was passionate about helping others and was always there to offer a helping hand, a smile, and encouragement to anyone, not only family and friends, but also to strangers," Del Rosarios family said in its statement. "He always put others before himself and would give the shirt off his back. He brought genuine joy and happiness to everyone he touched." Riley Nash Jersey .

Bo Levi Mitchell was named the games Most Outstanding Player after throwing for 334 yards on 25-of-34 passing with an interception. Eric Rogers had 108 yards receiving for the Stamps, who won their seventh Grey Cup title and first since 2008. Jon Cornish, the CFLs leading rusher, was held in check for just 25 yards on the ground. We had a very good week of preparation, said Calgary coach John Hufnagel. Hamilton had a lot of moxie to get back into the game. Zach Collaros led a furious rally for the Ticats, throwing for 342 yards with a touchdown in the loss. Brandon Banks had an 80-yard punt return negated late in the fourth due to a clipping penalty that would have given Hamilton the lead. He hauled in two passes for 81 yards with a touchdown. The Tiger-Cats have lost back-to-back Grey Cups. They fell to Saskatchewan in the final last season. We got a good young football team, said Hamilton coach Kent Austin. Its not always going to go our way. Thats how it is sometimes. Hamilton trailed by 13 entering the fourth and methodically marched down the field for a field goal from Justin Medlock early in the quarter. Delvin Breaux then intercepted Mitchell on Calgarys subsequent possession, but the Ticats settled for another field goal from Medlock, a 12-yarder that cut the deficit to 20-13 with 5:35 left in the game. Nic Grigsby was stuffed on consecutive plays from inside the 5 before Medlock made it a one-touchdown game. The Hamilton defense forced another stop and got the ball back with over four minutes left. Collaros hit Luke Tasker for 22 yards and converted a 19-yard pass to Bakari Grant to move the ball to the Calgary 24. The Stampeders did not break, and Medlock knocked down his third kick of the quarter to make it 20-16. Hamilton forced another punt and looked to take its first lead of the night. Banks picked up the rolling kick, backtracked a few yards and bolted down the sideline for a touchdown, but it was nullified after the penalty early in the return. We had other opportunities to win. Until I see the play Im not going to comment further, Austin said of the return. The Ticats hhad to go 98 yards from there and managed to make it to their 54.dddddddddddd Collaros was hit on his final throw as the ball fell incomplete and Calgary held on for the championship. We had to fight through a lot of injuries this year. This (Grey Cup) is for Calgary, this is for you, Mitchell yelled to the crowd after receiving his MOP award. Hamilton looked to be playing for field position to start the contest, but Grigsby had the ball knocked loose at midfield and it was eventually recovered deep in their territory, leading to a punt. Because of the near turnover, Calgary flipped the field and Mitchell fired a quick strike to a wide open Rogers for a gain of 28 yards to the Hamilton 27. Later in the drive, the Stamps called for a screen right off the center to Nik Lewis, who sprinted up field before leaping into a pair of defenders and getting wrestled down at the 1. Tate, the backup quarterback, then plunged in from a yard out on the following play to give the Stamps an early 7-0 lead. Calgary added on with a seven-play drive that was capped early in the second with another 1-yard score from Tate. Mitchell and Simon Charbonneau-Campeau hooked up for a 28-yard completion to the Ticats 36. Brandon Stewart was flagged for pass interference in the back of the end zone which set up Tate, who ran up the left side of the line until finding some daylight for the touchdown. Hamiltons most promising drive of the half to that point stalled at the Stamps 19, and the field goal attempt was blocked by Demonte Bolden. It was a great team effort blocking that kick, said Hufnagel. It was important because we marched right down and scored. Mitchell immediately went deep to Rogers for a 43-yard pickup, but the TiCatss defense held up and Rene Paredes booted an 11-yard field goal to make it 17-0. Hamilton had an answer, however, as Collaros tossed a 45-yard dart to Banks for a touchdown that cut the deficit to 17-7 at halftime. Paredes supplied the only points of the third quarter with his 20-yard field goal that made it 20-7 with 4:20 remaining. Game Notes Hamilton last won the Grey Cup in 1999 ... Cornish had 26 yards receiving on two catches ... Hufnagel won his second Grey Cup with Calgary.
