Cuba's three-time Olympic boxing champion, Teofilo
Stevenson, was released from a hospital Wednesday after
treatment for a blood clot near his heart, which was discovered
during a routine examination.
"I was in danger without knowing it," the 59-year-old told dpa in
Havana.
Stevenson won Olympic gold three times -- in Munich in 1972,
Montreal in 1976 and in Moscow in 1980 -- and is vice president of the
Cuban Boxing Federation.
