Tim Moore, the ol' Kingfish of Amos & Andy fought Sam Langford and Jack Johnson?

[BroughtonRulesRefuge]

- From Wiki: Born in 1887 as Harry Roscoe Moore in Rockport, Illinois.

"" By 1904, the act had performed with the Barnum & Bailey Circus.[8] As Moore and Washburn grew older, the act became less effective and Miss Miskel sent them back to their parents in Rock Island. Shortly after this, Moore joined the medicine show of "Doctor Mick" (Charles S. Mick), who sold a patented quack remedy called Pru-ri-ta. Doctor Mick travelled through the Midwestern states, with songs and dances provided by Moore and four Kickapoo Indians.[3][9] The young man also worked in a carnival sideshow and gave guided tours as a "native" tour guide in Hawaii.[3]""

''''Boxing and vaudeville years

Moore left Doctor Mick, first to become a stableboy and later a jockey. He also tried his hand as a boxer.''''[10][11


- So, right around 1904-6 he was Boxing?


''''The marriage ended in divorce in 1915, and in September, Moore married a vaudeville actress named Gertrude Brown.[19][20] After more than a year on the road in vaudeville in the United States, the Hawaiian Islands, Australia and New Zealand, he returned to boxing as "Young Klondike", training in New Zealand. He fought there and in Australia, England, and Scotland.[21] Before this, Moore fought as "Kid Klondike" in the US, with Jack Johnson and Sam Langford as some of his opponents.[22]''''



-I saw no Kid Klondike or facsimile Moore in the JJohnson and Langford records. Exhibitions?



''''Having made $141,000 with his fists, in 1921 Moore and his wife returned to performing full-time in vaudeville.[1][28][29]''''


- That's a very specific figure and a fair amount of money for a guy I never heard of. Langford, JJeannette, McVey, yeah, they could have have. Exhibitions where he performed as a boxer?
