    I was one of the shortest champions of my division, so short it was said my feet barely reached the canvas. But I was built like a fire hydrant, and was
    as tough a fighter my division ever had. Beat most everybody I fought in close to 200 bouts, except the best champion my division ever had. I am ?.

    Yes F, it is Rocky Kansas. At 5ft2" Kansas was built like a sawed off shotgun. He had close to 200 bouts against everyone in his great lightweight division of boxing's "golden age" and was almost impossible to stop. But for one man, Benny Leonard most probably the greatest
    lightweight that ever graced the ring...:good
