Question time..

No.......
another hint.
He was born on 12 November 1903
won title on 11 December 1916

 

What era....???? first, or last half of the last century??? Wayne Mulholland??

 

No ...... another hint.. he was half of the first set of brothers to both win Australian titles

 

Thanks mate.... I wish we all had a closer knowledge of such men.... Jackie Green. Also took the Bantamweight title.. Was he Teddy Green son???

 

'Old man'... are you indeed MT???

 

Brother........
MT???
You are halfway home.
Now who is the only person to win a national title in his first fight.

 

Who was the first father and son to win national titles?

 

ok... you are going back to the old times..... will have to consider the foreign exploits...

Was this person a U.S, or brittish fighter??????

 

The first father and son team to win National acccolades may have been Teddy and Jackie Green?

 

Teddy Green was 13 and a half years old when he won the Aust bantamweight title in Dec 1903 (must have been a tough little bugger!).

 

No he wasn,t, he was born in 1901 not 1903 that is in Boxrec....
Ted and Jackie were brothers.

 

My eyes used to be better but:

From BoxRec I've got Teddy Green as being born 1880-07-12 (12th July 1880 - the Yanks do the day & date around the other way).

.....and having won the Aust bantamweight title 1903-10-12 (12th October 1903).

This would have made Teddy Green 13 years & 3 months old when he won the Aus title.

 

Try 23 years old mate. Your math is worse than your eyesight. LOL

 

My mistake - sometimes you see what your looking for - not what's there!
