Former EBU heavyweight champ Juergen Blin has passed away at the age of 79, reports BILD. Blin held the title for only 124 days beating Jose Manuel Ibar Urtain in Spain and lost it to Joe Bugner in London and he was the first to admit that it wasn't talent that got him to the top in Europe. It was hard work and a strong will that made it happen.

Winning a European title was a lot tougher in the 70’s compared to today. RIP.
