    Tommy Gibbons Written by Rob Snell Thursday, 03 May 2007 Thomas J. Gibbons Name: Tommy Gibbons Career Record: click Nationality: US American Birthplace: St. Paul, MN Hometown: Saint Paul, MN Born: 1891-03-22 Died: 1960-11-19 Age at Death: 69 Stance: Orthodox Height: 6' 0? Reach: 74 inches (born March 22, 1891 in St. Paul, Minnesota, died November 19, 1960) was a boxer who lost the Heavyweight Championship to Jack Dempsey in 15 rounds. The brother of Mike Gibbons, Tommy started boxing professionally in 1911 as a middleweight. Like his brother he was a master scientific boxer who chose to outbox his opponents. In time, he advanced to the Heavyweight class and developed a respectable punch. His biggest fight came near the end of his career when he met heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey on July 4, 1923 in Shelby, Montana. The local backers and the town of Shelby went broke putting on the fight. The great Dempsey battled through the full fifteen rounds before winning by decision. Dempsey was awarded $200,000, whereas Gibbons received expense money. Tommy Gibbons record was 56-4-1 with 44 no decisions, and 1 no contest. He scored 48 knockouts, and was stopped only once by Gene Tunney on June 5, 1925. The names dotting his record read like boxing's hall of fame. Tommy recorded wins over George Chip, Willie Meehan, Billy Miske, Chuck Wiggins, Jack Bloomfield, and Kid Norfolk. Tommy had no decision matches with George "K.O." Brown, Billy Miske, Harry Greb, Battling Levinsky, Bob Roper, Chuck Wiggins, Georges Carpentier, and others.

To date there has been a total of 90,000 feet of 8mm and S8mm requested for transfer, about 8,000 feet of 16mm and 58 hours of VHS duplication requested. I'm surprised that Castle Films is no longer in business. Again, I must express gratitude to those members who took time to write and phone their encourgement over the resumption of the Newsletter. The organization is a joint venture involving all of us. Without the support of the membership, none of this would be possible. -- Long Live Boxing -- I am involved in doing research in the pre-1932 years of the career of Tiger Jack Fox. At the moment there are numerous verifications of main event matches between the years of 1925 and 1932 for him. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.

    Career Overview

    Name: Bill Brennan Career Record: click Alias: Bill Shanks, KO Bill Birth Name: Wilhelm Schenck Nationality: US American Hometown: Louisville, Kentucky, USA Born: 1893-06-23 Died: 1924-06-15 Age at Death: 30 Height: 6′ 1″ Career Overview Because Bill Brennan is one of those fighters over whose career the rumors of organized crime hung like a mist, it is hard to determine fact from fiction in terms of his career and life. What is indisputable is Brennan?s talent. He was a hard-punching, world class fighter who thrilled crowds but was often underrated by the press of his era. Regardless of his critics and mobster connections, no one can dispute that he gave boxing legend Jack Dempsey two of his toughest fights in 1918 and 1920. Brennan fought a total of 102 professional bouts, many against the best heavyweights of his generation, during a decade of prizefighting. Early Years Born Wilhelm Schenck, Bill was of German stock. Raised in poverty in Chicago at the turn of the century, he learned to fight in the streets. When he turned to prizefighting (still an illicit and often illegal enterprise) as a career, he changed his name to shield his family?s reputation as well as to hide his German background. He turned professional in 1913, during the Great War, and feared that the name Schenck would turn crowds against him. Irish fighters, on the other hand, were always popular. So he became Bill Brennan and had his first fights for pay that year, against otherwise forgettable pugs from the Midwest.

    Analysis of Male Boxers' Nicknames

    THE JOURNAL OF TEACHING ENGLISH FOR SPECIFIC AND ACADEMIC PURPOSES Vol. 6, No 1, 2018, pp. 126 UDC: 81‟1/‟4:796 https://doi.org/10.22190/JTESAP1801001O ANALYSIS OF MALE BOXERS’ NICKNAMES Darija Omrčen1, Hrvoje Pečarić2 1University of Zagreb, Faculty of Kinesiology, Croatia E-Mail: [email protected] 2Primary school Andrija Palmović, Rasinja, Croatia E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract. Nicknaming of individual athletes and sports teams is a multifaceted phenomenon the analysis of which reveals numerous reasons for choosing a particular name or nickname. The practice of nicknaming has become so embedded in the concept of sport that it requires exceptional attention by those who create these labels. The goal of this research was to analyse the semantic structure of boxers’ nicknames, i.e. the possible principles of their formation. To realize the research aims 378 male boxers’ nicknames, predominantly in the English language, were collected. The nicknames were allocated to semantic categories according to the content area or areas they referred to. Counts and percentages were calculated for the nicknames in each subsample created with regard to the number of semantic categories used to create a boxer’s nickname and for the group of nicknames allocated to the miscellaneous group. Counts were calculated for all groups within each subsample. Key words: hero, association, figurative language, figures of speech 1. INTRODUCTION Are nicknames only arbitrary formations of little account or are they coinages contrived meticulously and with a lot of prowess? Skipper (1989, 103) alleges that nicknames “often serve as a miniature character sketch”. When discussing nicknames in baseball, Gmelch (2006, 129) elucidates that sobriquets frequently communicate something about the players using them, e.g.
