    Nope, good guess but this arrow misses the mark.

    If no one gets it by tomorrow night, I’ll drop the first hint.

    3 bros, same card, MSG?

    This is like shooting fish in a barrel.

    Of course, they were The Bobick triplets,

    Duane, Rodney and Beau.

    Duane and Rodney won. Beau didn’t. He never did. He wasn’t very good. That’s why not many people know about him.

    What did two of their opponents have in common? Let’s see. They both lost to a Bobick.

    And the winner for answering this question is.....

    My Grandfather saw Arnold Cream in his first fight, in Vineland, New Jersey. He fought someone named Cowboy Wallace. Maybe Cowboy Wallace was Barbados Joe Walcott in disguise? :lol: If not, I had no idea the two Joe Walcotts ever even fought.

    Edit: Ah. I reread the question. It says "meet" not "fight." So, I still have no idea! :lol:

    As for the first question: Johnny Bratton?

    As for number 2: in an amateur sparring session in 1934?

    No for 1 I wrote the answer above and no for 2 it is pretty close to the year but not the circumstance!

    You’re thinking of the Bobbitt triplets: John, Lorena and Scissors.

    And no, neither is the answer.

    (And if anyone is thinking it, no, the Weaver triplets never fought in MSG together.)

    Hint No. 1: These three brothers who fought in MSG on the same bill were not from the U.S.

    This one is an incredibly blind shot taken backwards. Some of the Sand brothers?

    No from the US, eh?

    Tracking North into Canada, an edumicated guess - the Hilton brothers?

    Aside from Matthew, I don’t know much about them. I’ll lock it anyway for 1 million dollars.

    No. I think you’ll get it.

    Another hint drop tomorrow if no one nails it.

    As you get into the colder climate, you’re getting warmer.
