I believe that there were two Walter Prices and that their records are combined and should be separated. A Walter Price from Massachusetts claimed to have been a pro boxer in the 1920s who in 1938, knocked out former World Heavyweight Champion Jack Johnson in a "Cellar" match.
The other Price also fought in the 1920s, but was from England. If Prices boxrec record is reviewed, you will notice that he has bouts in England, then suddenly a whole batch of bouts in Massachusetts and then back in England. Two different fighters? I think so, and their records should be separated.

You are wrong and the Price that fought in Massachusetts was actually the featherweight from the U.K.

I'm wrong again. Thanks for the correction.
