In the second episode of the first season of Daredevil we get a flash-back to Jack Murdock's gym, where Matt's father trains for his fights. One of the posters there reveals that he once fought Carl "Crusher" Creel, who turned up in Season 2 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. as the super-villain Absorbing Man.

There are also other posters adorning the walls of the gym with references to other key figures around Daredevil. There are notable nods to writers Christos and Ruth Gage and Luke Kalteux, Daredevil artist Lee Weeks, and art director Al Stenzel.

Fogwell's Gym of course also introduces us to Roscoe Sweeney, otherwise known as "The Fixer" in the comics.
