JACK FOGARTY MW
Hometown - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
10(9)-1-1
Fogarty strung together eight knockout victories and perhaps as many as eleven other unrecorded victories before facing Jack Non Pareil Dempsey of Ireland for the American version of the World Middleweight Title in 1886. The two battled twenty-six rounds before Fogarty succumbed to a KO in the 27th. Jack fought two more bouts in 1886 with Joe Ellingsworth comming away with a win and a draw. After an absence of twelve years, Fogarty stepped back into the ring one final time in 1898 to KO the inexperienced Evan Davis in Wheeling, West Virginia.
