Pro Boxer: Record
Louis Lebreton became a well-known teacher in the district Brorv, Paris after his career. He died of a lung disease caught after being exposed to gas in World War I.
His boxing career as welter and middleweight was mentioned in L'Echo d'Alger 07-08-1929.
- Lebreton is probably not identical with a Lebreton who boxed out of Caen and who was a Olympic hope in 1924.
- Shows in Caen and Cherbourg in the mid- 20's were a mixture of pro fights and amateur bouts.
- Amateurs sometimes fought pros. This cast some doubt over Marcel Thil's early fights in the area.
