Kaboom!

The 47-year-old resurfaced at a sports benefit in NYC last month, looking like a knockout.
Ray Boom Boom Mancini
In 1983, South Korean boxer Duk Koo Kim suffered brain injuries after a 14-round fight with Mancini. Kim died five days later. In the months that followed, both Kim's mother and the referee of the fight committed suicide.

Today, Mancini owns a cigar company and two film production companies.

I watched that fight, it was televised on regular TV believe it or not, Duk Koo Kim was a very strong fighter who really pushed Mancini hard. It was a clean fight. Really very very sad.

This is addressed to comment # 9. You are a homophobic racist I am sure and probably racist with everyone else! You sound like someone with a 5th grade education level. All I did was pay him a compliment! I know he's straight you ass-wipe! Chances are if he got a look at your ugly face/body he'd probably never have sex with anyone ever again!

#12 Im more than happy to kiss....heh heh... but I was only paying a compliment nothing more. He shouldn't let his own level of uncomfortability with his sexuality/insecurities come out in such a racist manner...
