That photo of Johhny Coulon with Jack Johnson trying to lift him off the ground.
There are other photos of Johhny Coulon with other HW champs trying to do the same thing over the years.
Jack Dempsey,Gene Tunney,Primo Carnera,Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano.
Check out the May-7-1956 issue of LIFE magazine to see the photographs.

Bratton is one of my favorite older fighters to watch. The Fusari fight was savage.

Anyone remember this fight? For me this fight was easily among the top 100 best fights ever. Love to see this guy entrances to ring. Who is it? what did he used to carry on his neck to the ring when entering?
