Darn Bollocks... you are banned from my trivias! It didn't last 5 minutes!
Just let the others guess - with your description that should've been clear.

i think it`s nelson mandela.
but the heavyweight amateur champ of his country clue has dented my confidence.
i wouldnt have thought mandela boxed as a heavy, though i do know his hero was joe louis.
secondly i`m not sure if black fighters were allowed to fight for the south african amateur title back then.
oh well, thats my guess

..this was on a trivia test somewhere else over a year ago....and it fooled me then too.
the guy on the right looks like jack "chappie" blackburn. could that be possible? i have no idea where or when the picture was taken. i know a lot of other stuff though, such as the name of ezzard charles's sister in law, for instance.

My mother was Ezzard Charles' wifes nurse when she had a baby in 1949 or 1950...does that count as 'boxing knowledge'?Jaclem wrote: i know a lot of other stuff though, such as the name of ezzard charles's sister in law, for instance.

sweetstuff...sure...especially if she told you the name of ezzard's wife and that of the baby :P

My mother tells me that Mrs. Charles used a fake name to avoid publicity, but that everyone at the hospital knew who she really was...especially when Ezzard came to visit...she was a patient at Citizen's General Hospital, New Kensington, Pa.....I think she had relatives there...just a little obscure trivia for you....Jaclem wrote:sweetstuff...sure...especially if she told you the name of ezzard's wife and that of the baby :P

.gladys gartrel charles was extremely shy about publicity and kept herself away from the boxing world in general, so it's not surprising that she used a nom de.....patient...i guess you'd call it. even when they got married, it was kept a secret for a while. ezzard said it was because he didn't want a fuss made over it or something of the kind....but friends assumed it was really gladys's idea.
the name of the baby....well....think of an obvious name iof you assume it was a boy....
