    Does Beau Jack count? Or did he just have a temporary knee problem?

    How 'bout Craig Bodzianowski, the one-legged Lt. Hvy?

    Charley 'Doc' Williams

    Had I think Polio when he was younger caused his right leg to be slightly shorter aand thinner than the left.

    :patsch Beat to it i thought most would have forgot about him. For having one leg he really wasnt that bad, a decent journeyman out of Chicago nickname the Gator.

    JG, the guy I had in mind was JULIE BORT....He fought in the 1940s,had about 60 fights...
    I saw him fight...A good journeyman who once beat Lulu Constantino, a great lightweight boxer...Julie Bort had a short leg that he dragged behind him very obviously....bb...
