    Just caught a movie on TCM and there was a scene at Dempseys restaurant in NYC that had a ton of cameo appearances by fighters(wrestlers too).

    I detected Dempsey rosenbloomJefferies,godfrey but there were many more whom I could not name.
    Any help?

    Had a look at this on imdb - it mentions the ones you've listed plus Jimmy McLarnin and Jackie Fields. Also some wrestlers and other athletes like Jim Thorpe.

    I guess if they were less famous and didn't have speaking parts they may not have been credited at all.
