Can't seem to find much on him -- is there are record of his fights?
I think Hemingway writes about him in one of his stories.
Soldier Barfield

Re: Soldier Barfield
He must have had one hell of a chin, he lost 68 but only 5 by KO

Re: Soldier Barfield
Thanks!
I'd like to learn more about him.
If you could direct me to some reading about him, I'd appreciate it.
Do you know if Hemingway knew him personally?

Re: Soldier Barfield
Papa Hemingway wrote about him in "50 Grand"
His son Horace related some great stories to me some yrs ago.
His Mgr wrote a great career synopsis on him in "The Ring" around 1933 or so.
