Unrecorded Bouts For Boxers In California
Posted: 06 Nov 2005, 19:26
There were a staggering number of boxing shows in
California from 1918 to the early 1940s. Think about
this.....there were over one thousand pro boxing shows
perk year much of the time. Many of the results of
bouts on these shows are difficult to track down.
But I was able to track down results of bouts of
Ad Wolgast, Dave Shade (notably four-round bouts),
Bert Colima, Young Farrell, Henry Armstrong, Chalky
Wright, Bobby Pacho, Midget Wolgast, Young Corbett III,
Pablo Dano, Speedy Dado, Small Montana, and a number
of other fighters. But there is much more work left to
be done......
