    Oh yes Frank Bachman Sr managed Rosenbloom from a prelim boy in 1923. I didn't know that he had a son Al, who managed one of my favorite action MWs, contender Rory Calhoun.
    Rosenbloom ,won the first bout with Walker in 1933, then in the bout you cite Walker decisioned Rosenbloom in 1934...

    The fight directly prior to Walkers return to middle? Explaining Rosenblooms poor showing in that fight?
