      Mitch Halpern was a protege' of Richard Steele, and a very good referee. He was traumatized by his slow response to Gabriel Ruelas-Jimmy Garcia. Garcia died after Ruelas landed unanswered blows that Halpern wished he could have back. He refereed a Rosendo Alvarez, then killed himself shortly after.

                  I think it was the II fight, the one with the DQ.
