As an amateur he defeated Joan Guzman, Steve Molitor & Jose Navarro. Who is he? Omar Narvaez, although I needed other answers to confirm it.
Who vs. Who was the 1st televised fight? I think this was Max Baer vs Lou Nova, although that may have only been the 1st HW clash, as that's off the top of my head.
He is the only boxer to referee a world title fight BEFORE being in a world title fight himself. Who is he? Don't know
