How similar was he to Sam Langford? Both ridiculous freaks of the sport, correct?

I've heard Walcott quite in a handful of later fights that he was winning where he was more or less forced to, due to outside corruption and other misc bullshit.

Also, of course, given some crap decisions.

Anyone? Janitor?

Ah, yeah, read it.

Sad as hell how he died unknown in some little town.

Looking for other good stories and what not though. :)

Our resident Stonehands89 claims that he could "keep Walcott at the end of my jab".

He'd be either a physical freak or a total joke in today's scene.

I'm not quite sure which, though...
