He was in Paris to help coach Sydney-born Ato Plodzicki-Faoagali, the only boxer competing for Samoa at the Olympics .
” Samoa’s Olympic Committee president Pauga Talalelei Pauga paid tribute to Fatupaito. “Lionel was one of Samoa’s top boxing coaches and a great believer in the Olympic ideal,” he said. “Our thoughts and those of the entire Samoan sporting community are with Lionel’s family, his boxers and friends.
