Nig Yeager

Pic for the fighter file in the pack just sent to cornerwork.

"Yeager wasn’t the scientific best of Albina’s many good fighters, but certainly the most dramatic and spectacular, a heavyweight with a punch; other Albina fighters were smaller men. He not only could punch but could take a knockdown himself and still get up and fight some more, and these are among the elements of boxing popularity. The odd thing is that he rose from nowhere, and absolute unknown in the boxing game, into that sudden period of bright splendor, in which he packed in and stirred the fiery enthusiasm of the customers as no other Portland fighter ever did. He fought just 15 times. Of the first 14, all but four were knockout victories. Then came ill-advised No. 15 against too good and experienced a man and curtains!"

When you find an older boxer photo, it is always great to throw them up here. They may be of better quality than what has already been posted. (in my opinion anyway)

Tsuneo "Piston" Horiguchi - A boxing pose to replace the martial arts pic that I posted quite a while ago

For anyone who's interested, Battling Levinsky knocked the stuffings out of "Sailor" Carroll, in March, 1916, in New London, Connecticut. It is listed as a "No decision", because decisions were not given in many states in those days, no matter how one-sided a fight was. This was supposed to curb fighter's violent tendencies, and promote boxing as the "manly art of self-defense", but it actually did the opposite, because the only way a guy could credit for an official victory was by a knockout.
The New London Day reporter gave Battling Levinsky an easy victory, and folks, "Sailor" Carroll had one rough tenth round at the Lawrence Hall in New London, in March, 1916.
The reason I am writing is because Sailor Carroll, in a posed photo from two days before the fight, is pictured in the New London Day as a black heavyweight, and I think that was a mistake. I have seen Sailor Carroll's photo on the internet, and the one I see is blonde-headed. In the account of the bout, they don't make fun of the black man, as was common in those days(you think they only did that in the South? Try looking at almost issue of the New London Day from that period![on microfilm, at the New London Public Library-The Day has a fantastic photo of Al Palzer, around New Year's Day, 1913, when he fought Luther McCarty]), nor even mention his race. This leads me to believe that Sailor Carroll was the white Sailor Carroll that I saw in an internet photo.

Here are your pics Hagler. By the way, is that Saengmuangnoi Lukchapormasek aka Samson Dutch Boy Gym / Elite Gym / 3K Battery / et cetera?

I have never laid eyes on him, but a lot of Thai boxers have taken the 3K name while fighting there.

ChargersFan1 · 02-24-2005, 02:29 PM

The photo posted is actually Yodsanan 3KBattery

So, the file name should be changed to 3KBattery_Yodsanan
