CONI called Benvenuti one of the best boxers in the country’s history “and certainly one of the most beloved athletes.”The elegant boxer won the Olympic welterweight title in Rome in 1960, the same Games where Cassius Clay — who would later become Muhammad Ali — took the heavyweight gold medal.

Benvenuti beat out Clay for the Val Barker trophy as the games’ best boxer.“I only realized the importance of that award in the years that followed the games, when Muhammad Ali really became Muhammad Ali and the best boxer in the world,” Benvenuti later said.Benvenuti finished his amateur career with just one loss in 120 matches, according to the International Olympic Committee.
