Jack Daniels, active 1906-1922

[Lee2019]

Does anyone know anything about Jack Daniels, who boxed competitively from 1906 to 1922? Also, I am looking for an Alfred Burley for around that same time, but I don't know what name he boxed under. Any ideas will help.

Were they both Brits? A link to Jack below but Miles Templeton is your man to answer this properly if both from the UK.

Cool nice one Miles. How about the other fighter he mentioned, Alfred Burley, do you know him too?

[prewarboxing]

I'll have a look when I get in, in about an hour. Just having a couple of ales, I'm an early doors man.

There has never been a professional boxer in the UK with the name Alf Burley. I suspect that, if he was a pro, then he boxed under a different name.

Regarding Daniels, I have a 163 bout record for him between 1906 and 1924 and at least four photographs of him

Dear Miles and Controversial - thanks for this info. Miles I will PM you - I am keen to learn more. I am writing a biography on him so any info will help. He was a brit in the army and his close friend was Alfred Burley. As they were good mates I am only guessing that Alf boxed too but have no idea what name he boxed under, if any. Ps - I am a she (!)

No worries Lee, sorry for referring to you as a 'he' lol. I assume Jack had an interesting life to be writing a book on him?

If its the same Daniels who fought Welsh then theres film of him.

[Lee2019]

Hi Controversial

Yes, he did have a very interesting life. He came from a very poor family, fled wars and persecution, was a bit of a ratbag, became a famous war hero winning many medals and then an incredible good Samaritan. There's a lot of story to tell.

[Lee2019]

Wow if there is film of him that would be incredible.

[Lee2019]

He did fight a Freddie Welsh. His number is 165500

Wonder if he ever fought anyone named Jim Beam...
