Canzoneri, of course, and I haven't got a clue about the other. At a guess, is it Joe Choynski?

I'd say that's a briliant guess.
I been trying to gues who the big guy is for the last hour , but to my credit, i have been searching images of turn of the century heavies - didn't think of Choynski, though.

If it's not Choynski, he has a striking resemblance.

I'll take a wild stab at it.
The ear suggests a grappler. Boxers get some cali, but that guys got world class grappler cali

Ray Steele?

Hmmm, that ear don't look right on someone who taught no less a man than Jack Johnson the rudiments of defence.
I am starting to doubt the strength of my argument, expug.

Its not Choynski. Choynski stayed slim and began losing his hair as he got older.

No, it's not Choynski.

This guy did fight for the World title though.

tom heeney?

That's him. The Hard Rock from Down Under. Well done!

He looks different with his hair slicked down. Im used to it being close cropped and kind of curley.

Regarding his cali, Expug.

As Heeney was a kiwi I have no doubt he'd have played rugby. If you ever see a prop forward (front row of the scrum) he'll have a cali of some sort (unless he is of those fags that have taken to wearing head gear )
