I Remember Ezzard Charles

He may not be as famous as other boxers, but he is one of the greatest to ever step into the ring. He defeated Joe Louis. He is the only boxer to have lasted 15 rounds with Rocky Marciano. He is remembered as the "Cincinnati Cobra." He was born in 1921 and died in 1975 at the age of 53. He held the heavyweight title from 1949 to 1951. He fought 108 times, 93 wins (52 by K.O.) and 25 losses. Two of his fights are considered classics of the 20th Century, when he fought Marciano, and when he fought Jersey Joe Walcott. He was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame at Canastota New York in 1990. He may not be the greatest, but he is definitely among the greatest. I saw him fight. I remember Ezzard Charles.
