Described as quiet and gentlemanly with a sweet disposition by the sports writers of the era, Jack Weday was a popular main event club fighter with a brawling, aggressive style. He was a sailor who, in 1896, won the welterweight championship of the US Navy.

The boxer's photograph and a number of fights on this record were documented by clippings provided by Martin Stapleton, a descendant of Jack Weday.
