Thanks for the ideas, Mike. May have to do Kapilow and "The Omaha Kid" (my family is from that area) as soon as I finish the 1980s thing I'm wading through. My poor, neglected 1940s universe also recently got a couple of other heavyweights I hadn't come across, courtesy of Rocco and Crusade.

The immensely popular (Atleast he was in France , that is) Albert Badoud . I am pretty sure he hasn't been rated yet .

<b>Ritchie Mack</b>
An odd little lightweight, who fought out of St. Paul from 1928 to 1936. He beat Kid Azteca two out of three times and also beat Willard Brown. He was knocked out three times, and twice he came back to avenge those losses by outpointing the guys who kayoed him (Tracy Cox, Chino Alvarez). He had no power, but great defense and ring smarts. I can't find a picture of him. Sorry.

<b>Pete Nebo</b>
A Seminole Indian from Key West, Nebo is listed as a featherweight at Boxrec. Most of his fights, though, were at 130 pounds and above. I've got him down, here, as a junior lightweight. He took on Barney Ross for the junior welterweight championship in 1934, losing on points in 12 rounds. A picture follows.

<b>Danny Kapilow</b>
As requested. A Jewish welterweight of the 1940s, Kapilow fought and lost to champions Sammy Angott, Beau Jack, and Johnny Bratton during his career. He also fought Rocky Graziano to a draw. Picture to follow.

Danny Kapilow, from the program of his fight with Gene Burton, which Kapilow won by a first-round knockout.
