Frank Cappuccino
One of the most respected referee of his time. He was the third man in the ring in the brutal fight of Ward v Gatti and in the unforgettable display of force by Tyson when he knocked out Spinks in 91 seconds. Capsaicin was so respected he even earned a spot in Rocky V.
Without live sports, ESPN has been televising old boxing matches. I’ve always been a fan of boxing but watching some of these old fights reminds me how brutal yet beautiful this sport was at one point. Vintage boxing is required viewing. Even as a designer, old school boxing robes contain some awesome lock ups. Plus the names and nicknames are truly masterpieces.
