   Who was Benitez and why was he forgotten?

   • Benitez has been forgotten in many ways. He fought in perhaps the greatest ever era for the sport. The so-called fabulous four were at the helm of that golden era.

   What happened to Benitez?

   • But Benitez fell away as quickly as he came. The decline was painful for all, sad and predictable to a certain extent. The millions earned were lost in a fog of the usual.

   Did Benitez make a comeback in 1990?

   • The inevitable comeback in 1990 lasted just four fights, he went 2-2 in those fights, and finally, that was the end. The final resume was 53-8-1. Benitez was only 32, and the words of Davey Moore would soon take on a chilling new meaning. Retirement wasn’t kind, a harsh painful reminder of what the sport can do if you stay in it for too long.
