    I fought across many divisions;
    I faced great Light Heavyweights and Heavyweight's that had a great deal of poundage advantage over me;
    I beaten 6 Champions, 4 of them Hall of Famers and universally considered as All Time Greats;
    All my wins against those 4 HOF's and ATG's were by way of Knockout, which proves how much of a hard-titter I was, despite my size;
    Speaking of which, I was 1,68 mt or 5 ft 6 in, tall;
    The only title that I won, I got it as a Middleweight and I lost it to one of the biggest legends of the sport;
    Amongst the tough contenders that I fought and beat, there's Joe Butler, Black Pearl and "Mexican" Pete Everett;
    I was born a month and a half before the disastrous concert of the Symphony NÂș3 in D Minor of Anton Bruckner (written with a dedication to Richard Wagner) at the Vienna Philharmonic;

    I suspect it's Young Peter Jackson, not entirely sure.

    My first thought was Barbados Joe Walcott until I got to the bit about middleweight title so I think Peter Jackson is a good shout.
