    Not Jeffries, this guy is a southpaw. and Jeffries never wore long boxing pants as bare knuckle fighters did. probably no fighter in particular...

    I believe that is the famous artists depiction of Sullivan-Corbett. I recall first seeing this with a caption in a magazine that stated, "The artist who drew this could not have actually seen the fight because the bout was fought with gloves, not bare-knuckles."
