Former Heavyweight champ Floyd Patterson died today at the age of 71. 
In 1956, he became (at age 21) the youngest man to win the Heavyweight title.
He was also the first boxer to ever regain the heavyweight title.
I've always been interested in the history of boxing. Mr. Patterson was a favorite of mine.
May he rest in piece.
