    Teddy Green was 13 and a half years old when he won the Aust bantamweight title in Dec 1903 (must have been a tough little bugger!).

    Ted and Jackie were brothers.

    My eyes used to be better but:

    From BoxRec I've got Teddy Green as being born 1880-07-12 (12th July 1880 - the Yanks do the day & date around the other way).

    .....and having won the Aust bantamweight title 1903-10-12 (12th October 1903).

    This would have made Teddy Green 13 years & 3 months old when he won the Aus title.

    My mistake - sometimes you see what your looking for - not what's there!
