Great Post!
Poor guy had to breathe in all that cigarette smoke during lunch, more smoke (from a stogie no less) in the dressing room then had to go and fight in a smoke-filled arena.
i wasnt sure if these were actual fighters, but they were. they really did fight in 1950. cartier knocked bobby james out in the 2nd round. james never won a fight after this bout, and he hadn't won a bout since 8 fights before the cartier fight.
cartier went on to fight and lose to kid gavilan, bobo olson, and randy turpin.
cool vid, thanks for posting!
