===Later matches===
Mancini began the process of getting his life back together by once again putting on boxing gloves. He went to Italy to face British champion [[George Feeney (boxer)|George Feeney]], where he won a 10-round decision.

He defended his title two more times. First, on September 15, 1983, he beat Peruvian challenger [[Orlando Romero]] by a knockout in nine rounds at [[Madison Square Garden]] to achieve a lifelong dream of fighting in that building, and then after a November 25 tune-up bout in which he defeated Johnny Torres by first-round knockout in his return to the Caesar's Palace hotel in Las Vegas, in January 1984, in [[Ray Mancini vs. Bobby Chacon|a bout]] with former world champion [[Bobby Chacon]], which was broadcast on [[Home Box Office|HBO]], Mancini defeated Chacon when referee Richard Steele stopped the fight in the third round with blood dripping from Chacon's left eye at [[Reno, Nevada]].<ref>{{cite news |last=Dahlberg |first=Tim |date=January 16, 1984 |title=Haugen Defeats Mancini |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=rrFBAAAAIBAJ&sjid=iKkMAAAAIBAJ&pg=6702,883471&dq=mancini+chacon+round+three&hl=en |newspaper=Daily News |access-date=November 13, 2013}}</ref>

In June 1984, Mancini, still recovering from the emotional trauma of Kim's death, fought [[Livingstone Bramble]] to defend his title in [[Buffalo, New York]]. This time however, Mancini came out on the losing end, defeated after 14 rounds.<ref name="vindy-06-02-84">
