"The Raging Bull" has died.
Jake LaMotta, a member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame after a lengthy career that included an 83-19-4 record, was 95 years old. He famously fought -- and defeated -- Sugar Ray Robinson in 1942 and his memoir inspired Martin Scorsese’s 1980 film Raging Bull where he was played by Robert DeNiro.
Despite boxing not having a regularly occurring trading card presence, LaMotta could be found in a number of sets throughout the years.
McGregor-Mayweather showdown could ignite new card battles, too

Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. -- it's one of those what-if fantasy battles from the magazines of old that's coming true.
And with a pair of upcoming card releases there will be a battle on cardboard, too.
While we get to wait for the fight on Aug. 26 -- one that should be a promotional and pop culture spectacle -- we're getting the first autographs for Mayweather soon to go with McGregor's limited and pricey cardboard already on the market.
Keep reading for a tale of the tape so far ...
