    Dougie,again great photos of the past. a couple of points...
    1-i believe as other old-timers do that Kid Chocalate was a better P4P fighter than his later countryman Kid Gavilan. The Cuban Bob Bon was great, but so was Tony Canzoneri !
    2-You post a picture of the great Tommy Gibbons koing Jack Bloomfield from England,just
    before old Tommy Gibbons retired...A year ago on Youtube I saw film of that kayo that opened my EYES ! Tommy Gibbons looked awesome in flattening Bloomfield with left hooks and right crosses that would rival the later Archie Moore in firing power. whoever
    posted that on Youtube, i beseach you to post it once more for the ESB fans.
