Peace and Comfort to the Lane Family. Sad to see Mills Lane move on but thankful for the many fights he worked. They are a masterclass in Boxing Referee protocols. Rest in Peace warrior.

L E G E N D ! ! ! Rest In Peace, Mills. He was in a lot of iconic fights. And him refereeing during 3 of the oddest fight circumstances in recent memory is a trip. He was a little bad-ass. Loved his gruff demeanor. The way he would squeeze his body in between fighters to separate them - most noticeably with the big guys - was always fun to watch. We need more like him.
