    He was involved with Fitzsimmons early in his career and Torpedo Billy Murphy.

    You're right - especially if hhascup is online! I'm still trying to come up with a tricky question that will stomp him. No luck so far!

    Yeah, I saw that! You ask us to name the only Australian welterweight champion, who was never knocked out... and 6 min. later Henry comes up with a list of 7 names!! I wonder how he does that?
