We had only met Neino over a weekend in Putten, Holland last October 2009 when Gary Hamilton fought on a ITS Showtime event promoted by Ernesto Hoost.

Heino Heiwegen was Ernesto Hoost's manager and friend and was in charge of parts of the Hoost team. We had several talks with him - he was constantly asking were we ok and was extremely hospitable towards all our team.

I've met many people throughout the years at events and very few leave a lasting impression and it's true to say that we don't waste a second though but when someone so kind, caring and thoughtful it's hard not to stop wondering why, and only if?

On behalf of all our team who were well received in Barneville and met with Mr Heiwegen, I'd like to pass on our sincere condolences to all his friends, family and Ernesto Hoost we hope all will find peace in that he was well loved and respected as a human being.
