The Jimmy Elliott posted earlier under this thread was a different fighter altogether--an American middleweight of the forties rated by Mark Elwood. <i>This</i> Jimmy Elliott was a South African middleweight. Fought from 1953 to 1957. Record: 10-6-0 (3).

Elliott was knocked out in the sixth round of a Commonwealth middleweight title bout by Pat McAteer in May 1957. He died from the injuries he sustained in that fight.

I have intentionally misspelled his last name on the attached ratings file, leaving off one of the final T's, so that he and the American Jimmy Elliott will show up as separate fighters with separate biographies.

I have also attached the biography file for the American Jimmy Elliott, as rated by Mark, for those who want to keep both fighters in their database. Just drop the text file in the FightersBiography subfolder of the Memos folder.
