Many boxing experts (who know about early 20th century boxing) consider me one of the greatest featherweight fighter of all time. I raised in New York, but I was born in a city that you might not "know" but that you do "see".
nope..i will give two more hints. Inspite of his "greatness" his greatest win may well have been a thrown fight. my second hint, is to mention his birthplace again, the answer is right before your eyes.
Terry McGovern was born in Johnstown, Pa, moved to New York,fought from New York and is buried in Holy Cross Cemetary in Brooklyn, NY ,5 minutes from where I used to reside many years ago...
yep Terry McGovern....his brother actually came back and fought in johnstown a good bit (going off the old boxrec records of fights that occured in my hometown).
