EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the roaring 1910s, a pivotal moment in boxing history unfolds as Jack Johnson, the Galveston Giant and the first African-American world heavyweight champion, stands triumphantly at the ropes. With a record-breaking reign from 1908 to 1915, Johnson's impact on the sport was undeniable. His opponent, an unidentified adversary, lies unconscious at the ring floor, having met his match against the formidable champion. The referee, poised and attentive, begins the count, signaling the end of the bout and Johnson's latest victory. Johnson's powerful presence, evident in his muscular build and intense focus, embodies the spirit of determination and resilience that defined his career. This photograph, captured circa 1910, is a testament to the raw energy and excitement of the early 1900s boxing scene and the indomitable spirit of its champion, Jack Johnson.
