Lou Duva, the Boxing Hall of Famer who handled the careers of 19 champions including heavyweight Evander Holyfield, died Wednesday. A gruff, down-to-earth manager and trainer who was generous with his pupils, Lou Duva had a career that spanned seven decades. The son of Italian immigrants, Duva and his family built the promotional company Main Events (founded in 1978) into one of boxing’s powerhouses.
