The 7'2" heavyweight Jack Dempsey knocked out in roughly 60 seconds in the build up of the Tommy Gibbons fight. I think it was an exhibition bout, but Wray was touted as being 4-0-0 (4) at the time.

Based on the photograph it's difficult to tell whether or not he was a pituitary giant, but I thought I would share. I know nothing else of this man but this exhibition he had with Jack Dempsey.

Re: Photo of "Big" Ben Wray
It must be said the credit for the photograph comes from author Adam Pollack. This is one picture of Wray that did not make it into his new Dempsey book. He did however point out there are pictures of Wray in the book including Wray hitting the canvas in the match with Dempsey.
