There have always been rumours about Freddie Mills being the serial killer 'Jack the Stripper' , the crimes took place between 1959 and 1965. And its alleged that crime figures knew it was Mills carrying out the murders so had him killed.

Dale Crowe is inside on manslaughter charge. Crowe is the boxer that ended Greg Page's career.
Evangelos Goussis had 4 pro fights , but is more famous for being a hitman in Australia, he was involved in the Melbourne gangland killings which make the wild west look like a tea party.

Sonny Liston
From Wiki:
From Wiki:
He turned to crime and led a gang of toughs who carried out muggings and robberies, often wearing a favorite shirt, and he became known to St. Louis PD as the "Yellow Shirt Bandit." In January 1950, he was caught after a gratuitously violent robbery.[3][4] He was convicted and, in June 1950, sentenced to five years in Missouri State Penitentiary. He gave his age as 20 years old; the St. Louis Globe-Democrat said he was 22.[5] He also served a prison sentence for assaulting a police officer.[3]
Liston never complained about prison, saying he was guaranteed three meals every day.[7] The athletic director at Missouri State Penitentiary, Father Alois Stevens, suggested to Liston he try boxing and his obvious aptitude, along with an endorsement from the priest, aided Liston in getting an early parole. Father Stevens organized a sparring session with a former pro light-heavyweight to showcase Liston's potential. After 2 rounds the ex-pro had taken enough. "Better get me out of this ring, he is going to kill me!" he exclaimed.[8] On Halloween night in 1952, Liston was paroled. Much was later made of his being controlled by criminals. However, according to the priest who interested him in boxing, underworld figures became his management simply because they were the only ones willing to put up the necessary money.[6]
