Cap,

I was incorrect about James J. Jefferies height being 6'3 1/2. According to every reliable source that I have researched, his correct height was 6'1 1/2 & he weighed 228 lbs for his bout with Jack Johnson. Jeffries weighed 210 lbs to Tom Sharkey's 183 lbs, which would make it under today's standards a bout between a Heavyweight & a very small Cruiserweight. Are you are aware of any Cruiserweight weighing less than 190 lbs for a Cruiserweight Championship Bout since they raised the Cruiserweight maximum weight to 200 lbs?
