Anybody remember this fellow or watch him box?
He was on a real hot streak of victories until he met Jimmy Ellis on the undercard of the Ali-Folley fight back in '67.
Ellis destroyed him in one round and I never seemed to hear much about him after that.

I have two or three of his fights. One of them is the second Jimmy Dupree fight. Persol was a good boxer but simply has NO chin in that fight and is stopped.

Persol was undefeated as an amateur in over 80 fights.
