Italians Mourn Benvenuti Defeat to Monzon in Ring Loss
In Rome Friday night Nino Benvenuti, once Italy’s boxing pride, was knocked out in the 12th round by Carlos Monzon, relinquishing the world middleweight crown. The defeat fuels doubt about Benvenuti’s future as he nears 32 after a long, storied career with three losses in his last seven bouts. Monzon, 28, won the title in his first challenge and may face Benvenuti again, though the contract had no rematch clause.
