BIG BLACK From MTV “Rob & Big” DEAD At 45

Christopher ‘Big Black’ Boykin, one of the stars of MTV’s hit series, Rob & Big, has died suddenly. He was 45.

Boykin starred alongside Rob Dyrdek in the popular MTV show which ran from 2006 to 2008.

His rep tells us Christopher died Tuesday morning. No official cause of death yet, but multiple people connected to Chris tell us they believe it was a heart attack. He was Rob’s best friend and bodyguard on their reality show — and also later appeared on ‘Fantasy Factory.’ h/t tmz

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Boykin’s family and friends at this difficult time.
