Greatest Heavyweight Champion Ever!


Jim Jeffries (the so-called 'Great White Hope') against Jack Johnson outside of Ren Nevada, 1910. This was the 'Fight of the Century' of it's day. Johnson mopped the floor with Jeffries much to the chagrin of white America. The documentary, 'Unforgiveable Blackness - The Jack Johnson Story, is a must-watch in my books.
