Youngest ever champ
You have in Boxrec records Jackie Green was born in 1903 making him 13 when he won national title, this is wrong he was born in 1901 and was 15 when he won Australian title.

Re: Youngest ever champ
Considering you were around in 1901, I'll take your word for it Matty...ya frigging know all
Cheers mate.
Mind ya, don't think there was Australian titles in those days. They were Colony titles = NSW titles :P
BTW, in relation to your yonks ago TKO argument, you might like to know, to this day, there is no such thing in NSW :P

Re: Youngest ever champ
Are you talking about the KO entered in Boxrec which evidence was supplied it was a TKO and it was changed accordingly.
Which are you talking about?

Re: Youngest ever champ
Anton with your wealth of boxing knowledge see if you can answer this question which no-one else seems able to.
Who was the only Australian champion who won the title in his very first fight?
That should keep you out of my hair for a few hours....Or maybe days.
