Jack Ashton HW 1885-1891
Overall rating = 3
Hometown: Providence, RI
5-3-2 (KOs 2)

Lost to Jake Kilrain on points, George Godfrey by KO14 and Joe Goddard on points.
Ashton was a sparring partner of John L. Sullivan. He developed blood poisoning from a scratch on his left arm, and then erysipelas set in as a sort of accompaniment, from which he died January 6 1893 at Bellevue Hospital in New York.
