    Unknown Winston



    was posting about him on another thread and thought his name fitted here :)

    .............


    Nov 22, 1935 - Boston Garden, Boston, Massachusetts

    Jack Sharkey KO's Unknown Winston...twice...in the same fight !!

    Sharkey's first bout in two years.

    He kayoed Winston in the first round after two blows but, as there had been "ugly talk" before of a "fix," the fans surrounded the ring shouting insults. Referee Martin tried to assure them that Winston had tried, which was greeted with louder insults. Sharkey suggested they start the bout all over. Martin consulted with the judges, and a few minutes later permitted the bout to start all over again. The fans returned to their seats. In the second round Sharkey caught Winston with a left to the jaw to floor him for an eight-count. He then slammed him with a right to the jaw and Winston was down for good. The fans booed and went home. The State Boxing Commission then suspended Winston for one year for not giving his "best efforts."
