40: On the Ropes (Carlos Monzon) | Argentina
Carlos Monz\xf3n was Argentina\u2019s golden son: a man with a humble background who managed to win the boxing World Middleweight Championship \u2013 a title he defended 14 times. But his violence did not stay inside the ring. On the morning of February 14th 1988, in a domestic dispute, he murdered his wife, then threw her half-naked body over the railing of a second floor balcony. Yet, this brutal event did not change his fan\u2019s opinion of him. With the mother of his son no longer alive, he was no less of a hero in their eyes.\nHelplines for domestic abuse:\nUS: 1-800-799-7233\nUK: 0808 2000 247\nAustralia: 1-800-737-732\nFor pictures and more information, join us on Facebook\n\nWant to become a Patron of the podcast?
