Argentine heavyweight Oscar "Ringo" Bonavena was frequently described as "happy-go-lucky" and "just a big kid." But virtuous sweethearts don't tend to be gunned down on the front steps of a whorehouse. Bonavena's recklessness left behind him a trail of self-destruction that ended violently at Reno's infamous Mustang Ranch.
