Legendary ref's company to be run by his sons

EDITED PRESS RELEASE: Let’s Get It On Promotions is back as boxing’s most famous referee Mills Lane and his two sons, Terry and Tommy, have put the company back in business and plan to start putting on fights soon. Lane is regarded as one of the best referees in boxing history. Lane officiated some of the biggest fights in recent history including Holmes-Cooney, Chavez-Taylor II, Tyson-Holyfield II. All of his fights were preceded by his famous trademark phrase “Let’s Get It On!” According to company representatives, Lane will act as chief advisor to the company while his sons handle the day-to-day operations. The former Let’s Get It On Promotions consisted of a partnership between Lane and promoter Tony Holden. The company experienced a successful two-year run, but all was halted when Lane suffered a debilitating stroke in 2002 [Editor's note: a recent television piece showed an alert Lane playing poker, but having difficulty with his speech]. The new Let’s Get It On Promotions operates out of Reno, NV, and was granted a license to promote professional boxing by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in 2006. Pro boxer Joey Gilbert, a former part owner of the company is no longer involved with the company, which intends to start promoting shows in Northern Nevada this summer.  For more information, visit www.letsgetitonboxing.com
