Charlie Mohr

Charlie Mohr was a middleweight college boxer for the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He died April 17, 1960, of a brain hemorrhage following an NCAA Tournament bout. Twenty-two days after Charlie Mohr's death the University of Wisconsin–Madison abolished the sport at UW–Madison. The NCAA soon followed Wisconsin's lead, officially ending their support of the national boxing tournament in late 1960 and unofficially terminating the sport.[1]
