Robin? Would you double-check your source for the Godfrey-Leonard Dixon bout of Dec. 23, 1929? I have a day-after newspaper account saying his opponent was Long Tom Hawkins, not Dixon. Thanks. :)

I recall reading in an old newspaper that a fighter (Possibly Dixon) had used "Long" Tom Hawkins as his name in a fight with Godfrey, but it was an imposter and not Hawkins.

Well, maybe I'll just add a comment about this. Thanks. 8)
