Jersey Joe Walcott 🥊 Beautiful Boxing
Born in Pennsauken, New Jersey, Walcott was an American professional boxer who competed from 1930 to 1953. He held the NYSAC, NBA, and The Ring Heavyweight titles from 1951 to 1952, and broke the record for the oldest man to win the title, at the age of 37. That record would eventually be broken in 1994 by 45-year-old George Foreman. Despite holding the world Heavyweight title for a relatively short period of time, Walcott was regarded among the best heavyweights in the world during the 1940s and 1950s. Despite losing four title shots, Walcott joined a small handful of boxers who claimed the world title on their fifth try. Charles fought Walcott in another title fight on July 18, 1951, at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh. This time Walcott gave his best performance of their entire series of fights, winning most of the rounds and knocking out Charles in the seventh round, with a left hook to the jaw, to finally become world heavyweight champion at the age of 37, this knockout is considered to be one of the best in boxing history. This is a compilation of Jersey Joe's greatest moments of footwork & defense.
