A Damon Runyon quote.

Fighters who lose fights have cut eyes, broken noses, torn lips and broken bones. Tonight ??????? ??????????? simply had a broken face. He had no business being around for the full 15 rounds, but he was, and you have to take your hat off to this boy. He has the kind of courage of which great champions are made.

But what fighter was he talking about? and in which fight?

Was it Tunney after the first Greb fight?

Not many of us can even imagine Tunney having been treated like that in the ring.

Very unobtainable...unless it was filmed and is now laying up in some old attic, or in some old theater which has been shut down for decades, but not likely...plus I don't know if the bout was even supposed to be filmed. It's one of the top fights that I would like to be able to watch.
