He came from a fighting family and many of his early contests are only now coming to light. He was discovered by Harry Dorsey and managed, whilst in London, by Harry Berman. He boxed extensively in the United States, where he toured three times, and in Australia. He won a Lonsdale Belt outright by the time he was 23 and did so in a very competitive division and during a very competitive era.
