    Max Baer, beat Primo Carnera and lost to Jim Braddock

    Actually it could be Tommy Farr but I don't think he was ever world champ. But he fought Braddock, Baer and Joe Luis and unlike everybody else mentioned on this thread he was actually Welsh I think!

    CORRECT!!!


    His parents were welsh speakers who moved to the US.

    Willard only spoke welsh up to the age of 5 then he started to learn English.



    P.S. is this the hardest question in the history of Saddoboxing?
