Nino Benvenuti...that's a name from the past that you don't hear too often...very exciting fighter.

When watching World of Sports back in the day, I remember him fighting (an losing to) Carlos Monzon. I was always pulling for the Italian

One of the most memorable moments I recall in fighting is when Benvenuti's manager threw in the towel and Nino was trying to kick it out of the ring (only Italians can do that stuff). You just don't see shit like that anymore
