    Here are some images of Lloyd Marshall vs. Charley Burley, held on 12/11/42 at Hollywood, Ca. This is a sequence from one of the knockdowns of Burley-got these photos a few years ago, & I promised one of the posters here I'd upload them. No film, but sometimes, the pictures do the talkin'.

    Enjoy!

    There were more from this bout, but I took the ones above. There were also some available of Eddie Booker vs. Marshall, which I should've buckled down & bought. Kicking myself right now.

    Images of this period are scarce-especially from the Murderer's Row, & difficult to come by.

    Thanks for the pics. Interesting, I never realized how powerfully built marshall was. From the look of his upper body on these photos one might have assumed that he was a he was a heavy.
