This song is about not only how great and exciting a fighter he was, but also touches on South Korean fighter Duk Koo Kim, who died five days after being severely beaten by Mancini in the ring. Mancini was deeply affected and depressed by not only Kim's death, but by the suicide of Kim's mother 3 months later, and the suicide of the referee of the bout less than a year after that:

Of her mystery
And crashing through the walls
Of dying history
