I have a passing interest in looking at fighters from 1890's to 1930's via old newspapers. I am not a historian just someone with a passing interest and like to delve into career of some fighters who may not be known or are briefly a passing thought. Are there any fighters who either champs, contenders or just a lower rank fighter that you are interested in or fascinates to the point of obsession in finding out info. Here is a small list that I find myself looking at: Rube Ferns - Welterweight Champion Matty Matthews - Welterweight Champion Kid McPartland - Lightweight challenger and referee Wilmington Jack Daly - Lightweight Challenger Phil Brock - Lightweight Gorilla Jones - Middleweight Titlist Eddie Cannonball Martin - Bantam Champion Marty McCue - Featherweight and New York Assemblyman Wildcat Ferns - Welterweight Claimant
