One of the saddest things about Freddie Mills is that he is more remembered today for his mysterious death than either his sporting achievements in the boxing ring or his subsequent film and television career. He always came over as a warm personality and was reputed to be kind to his many fans. Some of the theories appertaining to his demise have been particularly bizarre, but it does seem that he fell out with some very dangerous people along the line. Personally, I don't buy the suggestion that he was the West London serial killer known as "Jack the Stripper". Neither do I believe that the celebrity-obsessed Krays had him murdered. However, the American mob, then in the process of opening a casino fronted up by U.S actor George Raft, remain a more credible possibility. We will almost certainly never know for sure.
