Super happy to win this and I’m sure boxing fans know more about this historic fight. Jack Johnson lost the championship to Jess Willard in 1915 in a fight in Cuba. The 37-year-old champion tired and was knocked out in the 26th round. The 26th round!!!!!!! Rumors suggest that Johnson threw the fight as a concession to authorities in a bid to return home.
The REA description “ Graded POOR 1 by SGC. Jack Johnson and Jess Willard.”
