Today, Mann rests in a potter’s field in Fountain Lawn Memorial Park in Ewing, New Jersey, with just a blue stake bearing his legal name, Ted Mannschreck, to mark the location of his body. Mann, who compiled a pro record of 27-15 (14 KOs), died as a “John Doe” on December 10, 2024, after landing in a hospital while suffering from dementia. He was 73 years old and had no identification, having dropped his wallet in the woods some time before. With no information about how to contact his next of kin, Mann was buried in a cardboard box.
