posted this on the old timers page, but thought it might be of interest to some that don't look on there.

Its about Ted Lowry , who twice went the distance in 10 rounders with Rocky Marciano the only man to do that. He looked a tough man going by his record, wasn't stopped many times.

The guy was extra tough. He went twice the distance with LaStarza and once with Archie Moore too.
There were some very tough fellows then. They also fought more often then the pampered once we have now.
