Jack Johnson beat Brad Simmons by KO in round 2 of 10

  • Date: 1931-04-27
  • Location: Forum, Wichita, Kansas, USA
    • Reportedly a fixed fight. Johnson made a couple of voodoo passes over Simmons before winning their latest 'rematch' by second round knockout. Both men were barred from appearing in a Kansas boxing ring again. Johnson's last official sanctioned bout. Johnson actually called out Jack Dempsey but no match between the two men ever occurred. Johnson also reportedly fought a specially sanctioned three round bout with Dynamite Jackson after this bout. Otherwise Johnson fought exhibitions only up till 1945, primarily to raise money for U.S. War Bonds.
