some of you seems to really know your stuff, i wanted to mention one thing and ask a question, first at the end of the johnson fight he knocks ketchel out with a right hand and "picks his teeth out of his glove" but its his left glove he is pawing at, so that is a typical johnson b.s. story,
and my question, you usually hear how they had an arrangment to go the distance and Ketchel broke it and thats when he dropped him, but i'v read an article(i think by Mike Casey) talking about him getting footage of the entire fight and watching it for the first time, the way he described it was them two going at it all out from round one and he was adamant that the Johnson story about an agreement and him going easy on Ketchel was bs
Most likely just wanted to save face seeing as a 158lb middleweight hurt him bad, opinions on this?
