Today I am SADLY underated as one of the very best fighters of my division. No one was any tougher than i, who after a tragic bout in which my opponent
died, I went on to become a champ of my tough division...Too bad i am virtually forgotten today...Too bad ! Who AM I ?

This could be any of the following plus several more that I didn't put in.

Bob Fitzsimmons
Kid Lavigne
Jack Root
Bud Taylor
Sammy Mandell
Max Baer
Primo Carnera
Lou Ambers
John Henry Lewis
Ezzard Charles
Alan Minter
Marlon Starling
Barry McGuigan
Jimmy Barry
Young Griffo
Jess Willard

So lets see, most of these guys are pretty well known. You might be talking about Kid Lavigne, who killed Andy Bowen, with Joe Walcott, Jimmy Handler, Mysterious Billy Smith and Charlie McKeever finishing the quintet of fighters. It could also be Sammy Mandell, Bud Taylor or Lou Ambers, But like I said, there pretty well known.

Henry, my guy you mentioned is Lou Ambers who tragically kod Tony Scarpati in 1936,who died from the ko...A few months later Ambers won the
LW title from Tony Canzoneri, but soon after lost the crown to Henry Armstrong. Ambers then regained the title from Armstrong once more...
Ambers was a great LW who was part of the great quintet of Armstrong, Barney Ross, Tony Canzoneri, and Jimmy Mclarnin and Ambers,
alongside Kid Chocalate,and Billy Petrolle...Good show H...
