Babe Ruth and Tommy Ryan. Very good one. Talk of Poncho Villa and Frankie Genaro are only reasons I thought of him.
I'll try this 1: I was given a shot @my division's vacant title after several other contenders declined the opportunity (I suppose the opponent was too sweet for their liking). When I got the shot, I succeeded in scoring a KD, but was later dropped myself & outpointed. It would end up being the lone title shot of my career. Who am I?
My turn: I am Puerto Rican and was considered the second coming of Wilfredo Gomez and Wilfred Benitez I am an expert in trigonometry but was not a world champion, although in one of two title tries, I was one second way from becoming one, dropping the champ who got up at nine. I once fought in Chile, also fighting in the Dominican Republic, Aruba and the United States. Jeanette Martin , on the picture to the left, was like a sister to me when she was 12.
