the guy went the distance against marciano and there isnt that much info on him. If he gets two lines in a marciano book I havent read them. I know red was matched hard and gave archie mcbride a tough fight for a state title and that he was an all round athlete but I just dont know that much else other than his record on boxrec. anyone know anything else?
Isn't McBride still alive? (He would be 81 now.) Bivins also fought him, but I can't vouch for his recall at 90, although his physical health seems good, as it was only one of 112 fights. Still, you could send an Email inquiry to Jimmy's web site, where it might be conveyed directly to him in hopes of a reply. (Personally, my preference would simply be to convey my regards.) http://jimmybivins.com/Pages/contact.htm
