Legendary boxing referee Mills Lane R.I.P

Sad to report the passing of the legendary boxing referee Mills Lane who has passed away at age 85.

Famous for his “let’s get it on” tag-line, the boxing world is mourning the loss of this Hall of Famer referee.

Lane officiated a multitude of major fights in the history of the sport, including more than 100 world championship bouts during the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s.

He had suffered a stroke in 2002 but died after being treated in hospice care this week.

Rest in peace Mills.
