        As has been mentioned here already some of the animosity of this fight came from paret calling griffith a maricon (******) prior to the fight. Years later Griffith was quoted as saying this
        "I keep thinking how strange it is ... I kill a man and most people understand and forgive me. However, I love a man, and to so many people this is an unforgivable sin; this makes me an evil person. So, even though I never went to jail, I have been in prison almost all my life."


        Quite sad, huh?
        Yeah I read on Wiki that this fight ruined Griffith for the rest of his life...that must be a rough thing to live with even though you know every time you go in that ring you may not come out...

            The biggest controversy involving Goldstein as a referee occurred in 1962 when he refereed the Benny "Kid" Paret-Emile Griffith world welterweight championship fight. In that nationally televised encounter, Griffith pinned Paret in a corner in the 12th round and delivered a barrage of unanswered punches to the head of the seemingly helpless Paret as Goldstein looked on. When Goldstein finally did intervene, Paret slumped to the canvas, unconscious. He died 10 days later from the injuries he suffered in that bout. Goldstein never refereed another fight. Some have said the reason Goldstein was ineffective in the fight was that he was recovering from a recent heart attack. Ironically, before the fatal bout, Goldstein had been regarded by many as the finest referee in boxing. His son Herb pointed out that he had often been criticized for stopping other fights too early
