What are your thoughts of this 100 pound per pound all-time great bantamweight?
He won the bantamweight tilte from Kid Williams, the great bantamweight champion from Baltimore who had won the bantamweight title on a 3-round knockout over Johnny Coulon.
The RING magazine (when it used to be good in they days before Nat Fleischer died) had a lengthy as-told-to artilce by Pete Herman giving his description of his title winning fight with Kid Williams.
There is a film of Pete Herman knocking out a British fighter in England.
He went blind.
One of the greatest bantamweight champions.
His fight with flyweight Jimmy Wilde is well known.
