    Yes Klompton, Jack Delaney in 1925kod Tiger Flwers in the first round. Flowers claimed he beat the 10 count,and Delaney agreed to another round.. Well in the second round Jack Delaney Ko'd Tiger Flowers for the second Ko of the fight...Delaney had a laser straight right cross,for sure...

    This reminds me of another question. What Former World Champion KO'ed an Unknown twice in 1 bout? This one should be a peace a cake.

    Actually Flowers didnt beat the first count. He claimed he had been hit while down. Walk Miller, Flowers manager, had made such a stir about Flowers first loss to Delaney, stating that Delaney had knocked him out with loaded gloves, that the officials allowed Flowers to continue the fight after having been counted out. He did so and was knocked out again.

    Actually the hint is in the question I put up. Your going to kick yourself when you find out the answer.

    Look at the question again:

    What Former World Champion KO'ed an Unknown twice in 1 bout?

    Excellent!

    I knew if you just looked at the question you would figure it out.

    By the way, I was selected unanimously into the New Jersey Boxing Hall of Fame Monday night. I will be officially inducted on Thursday, November 11th.

    Your 16 minutes late, Burt came up with the answer at 12:38.

    Thanks again, I met all those you stated, BUT I never saw any of them box, as I was too young to do so.

    Well, it's getting late, so I will say good night!
