Caleb, Trey and I discuss Dan’s suggestion that we go to a weekly podcast.

Shooter in a Worked World: John Pesek and the 1920s Promotional Wars is available on Amazon.

I also recommend UFC Chronicles: The Baddest Dude on the Planet about the greatest mixed martial artist of all-time, Anderson Silva.

Główna zawartość

Stanislaus Zbyszko double-crossed Wayne Munn in April 1925 at the behest of a promotional group headed by Joe and Tony Stecher.

Zbyszko dropped the title to Joe Stecher in St. Ludwik w maju 30, 1925. The Illinois and Michigan Athletic Commissions refused to recognize Zbyszko’s title win. Lewis defeated Munn on May 30, 1925 as well in Michigan.

Przez lata, I shared the common belief that I have seen written several times. Lewis continued to defend the world title like he never lost it. Stecher feared a double-cross from his partners and practically retired the title.

Jednak, while researching the book on Pesek, I discovered information that leads me to believe the portrayal of Stecher’s title reign is not true.

I will be researching the divided championship period over the next few months.
