    Ah yes, The Curious Case of Bob Fitzsimmons.

    Cue ball bald out of the womb and until around the age 24, when some follicles began to inexplicably sprout some hair, here and there.

    By 1894, he basically had a full head of hair with a huge demand for him to play a handsomely paid spokesman and testifier to multiple “snake oil”, hair restoration treatments.

    The income from such was why Bob didn’t bother defending his title for 2 years after winning it from Corbett, who was a hirsute man himself.

    I think the Sharkey win is better. Jim was done when he met Ruby Robert.
