Gilbert Aldana dead at age 29

By Zach Arnold | March 12, 2007

A very sad story reported in The Arizona Republic notes that a 29-year old man (later identified as UFC fighter Gilbert Aldana) drowned in a waterskiing accident. News broke about this on various MMA message boards, but there was no confirmation until Monday morning about Aldana’s death.

More coverage here, here, here, and here.
