1921 Action photograph of former black boxing champion Joe Jeanette as he works out with the man who hoped he could knock of Jack Dempsey and take the Heavyweight Championship. Among this duo, Jeanette is the star but racism at the time prevented him from reaching his potential. Stamped on the back by the International News and with a couple edge chips.
