    A short tribute to Jimmy Braddock, the Cinderella Man, highlighting his boxing skills in the ring.

    Although only four fight films of his are available, you can see he had a good crisp jab. A nice double jab. He was very crafty, was a good counter puncher, and had a great sense for timing and positioning.

    He became heavyweight champion of the world when he defeated Max Baer, later losing the title to Joe Louis.
