15 Seconds with Billy Conn

[marbleheadmaui]

You left out HOFer Fritzie Zivic- Conn fought him, too.
My father was born in Pittsburgh in 1925, and we are Croatian, so my early boxing education was centered around the Zivic brothers and Billy Conn.

Yeah I left out Fritize because he was really a welter.

I still remember reading how scared Ray Robinson's trainer George Gainford was about putting him in with Zivic. He thought Fritz might ruin him.
