Sad to report that IFBB Pro bodybuilder,Eric Otero was found dead at his home yesterday. No details yet but he was only 37 years old. Was a great amatuer middleweight but didn`t do too much competitively as a pro. Great physique................RIP !!  |

Eric was a tremendous athlete and his pro status was well deserved. Sympathy and peace to his family and friends in this difficult time.
