7/31/1908 - JJ KO8 Ben Taylor (Plymouth, England)\nThis was the bout just before Johnson won the World Heavyweight Championship.\n\nHowever, he did not fight in England after he left the US to avoid prosecution under the Mann Act.

Northallerton is near to where I live and is a pretty quiet Market Town where I cannot imagine any Bands have played. However I do know that the Pistols played at the Rock Garden, Newport Road, Middlesbrough around this time.\nYou have got me interested now and I am going to ask some mates about this.

Tito KO. Roy is a loser, he fought nobody. Tito had great bouts. Jones? he was made by promoters.

I can't answer your question specifically but I do know of a US Air Force member who was a Brit and had worked as a Bobby in London.\n\nCheck the web for a British military e-mail address and ask them directly.\n\nGood Luck.

After Jack Johnson lost the title the champions were white. Louis was the first black to take the title after Johnson. I haven't heard of Louis refered to as this, only "The Brown Bomber"

No Andrew Johnson is not a good singing for Evertoon he was too much money for just one palyer £8.6 millions.  \n\nHe will scored a lot of goals but i thought he would have be a since than 7 or 6 millions.

I don't think it was ever really illegal to begin with.\n\nMaybe you're wondering when boxing became a sanctioned sport? Earliest evidence suggests that boxing was prevalent in North Africa during 4000 BC and the Mediterranean in 1500 BC. \n\nRecords of boxing activity disappeared after the fall of the Roman Empire. The sport would later resurface in English during the early 18th century in the form of bare-knuckle prizefighting. The first documented account of a bare-knuckle fight in England appeared in 1681 in the "London Protestant Mercury," and the first English bare-knuckle champion was James Figg in 1719. This is also the time when the word "boxing" first came to be used.\n\nThe first boxing rules were introduced by heavyweight champion Jack Broughton in 1743 to protect fighters in the ring where deaths sometimes occurred. Under these rules, if a man went down and could not continue after a count of 30 seconds, the fight was over. Hitting a downed fighter and grasping below the waist were prohibited. Broughton also invented "mufflers" (padded gloves), which were used in training and exhibitions.\n\nIn 1867, the Marquess of Queensberry rules were drafted by John Chambers for amateur championships held at Lillie Bridge in London for Lightweights, Middleweights and Heavyweights. The rules were published under the patronage of the Marquess of Queensberry, whose name has always been associated with them.

george chavalo are u serious...lol!! it was jimmy ellis who ali beat in a split decision and larry holmes who beat the s*** out of ali in 1978. It must be noted that ali was well past his prime and he shouldve retired after the thrilla in manilla. ali also lost to trevor berbick in 2 rounds. none of these people could even touch ali in his real prime....before he lost those three years in exile. ali wouldve destroyed them all
