    Birth Names of Boxers

    Birth Names of Boxers, not necessarily pseudonyms.

    Let us include their birthplaces and birth dates as well.

    I will get the ball rolling with Walker Smith Jr; May 3, 1931; Ailey, Georgia; who became Ray Robinson.

        Story is he was AWOL and fought under a pseudonym. At least that's the Hollywood version.
