Tom Gibbons was the first boxer to go the entire fifteen rounds with Jack Dempsey when he performed the feat during the World Championship Fight in Shelby, Montana on July 4, 1923. He lost the decision but won the admiration and respect of the Sporting World. The offered item is an original International News Photo with a date stamp of 1925 on the back. Photo is in nice shape with some minimal handling wear and a couple chips on the border.
