词条 | Hen Pearce |
释义 |
Pearce was known as "The Game Chicken", a nickname probably derived from his habit of signing his name "Hen" instead of Henry. He was reckoned a fast, skillful boxer who hit hard with both fists. On 6 December 1805, Pearce defeated Jem Belcher in a Championship decider ( a fight reported in Pierce Egan's first volume of Boxiana).[2] He was inducted into the Ring Boxing Hall of Fame in 1987 and the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1993.[1] See also
