    RIP. Even prime Ali recognized Mildenberger's effort in their title fight.

    Life is short. Seems like yesterday that I was a kid watching the WBA Elimination Tournament. With Karl’s passing, they’re all gone now. RIP Karl.

    A solid guy, best know for giving Ali some trouble and a south paw stance, which back then was rare.
