I've been absorbing old boxing 175+ 40's -60's

It was Joey Maxim, who, incidentally, worked at the Silver Slipper casino in Las Vegas in the mid 80s. He ran a wheel right inside the door and i was fortunate enough to meet him. But look at who he fought in consecutive fights:
5/30/51 Ezzard Charles
8/22/51 Bob Murphy (60-5-1)
12/12/51 Ezzard Charles
3/6/52 Ted Lowry (twice went the distance with Marciano)
6/25/52 Robinson
12/17/52 Archie Moore
3/4/53 Danny Nardico (44-8-4)
6/24/53 Archie moore
1/27/54 Archie Moore
6/7/54 Floyd Patterson (Patterson's first pro defeat)

Geebus H. Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The weakest names are freaking "Irish Bob" who was a fine fighter (hell he beat LaMotta) and Danny Nardico (who also beat LaMotta). Cripes!

It wasn't the Silver Slipper- it was the Stardust.
