The 5′9½″ boxer fought out of Bridgeport, Connecticut as a heavyweight, though he would be considered a light heavyweight under modern classifications. Fights with Morris GrantHadley won the colored heavyweight championship from Morris Grant, whom he fought twelve times between 1881 and 1883. Their first recorded match was January 14, 1881, when Hadley won points in a three-rounder and claimed the Grant's title. Hadley fought Grant a 10 more times while he was the colored champ, beating him eight times. In their seventh fight, held on May 4, 1882 in New York City, their four-rounder was declared a no-contest. Their next fight, on June 20 of the same year, saw Morris finally beat the undefeated Hadley (whose "official" record was 12-0-2 at the time), besting the champ on points in a four rounder. Hadley apparently did not put his belt at stake for the fight, for he continued as champion until 1883, when he was finally bested by George "Old Chocolate" Godfrey. Morris lost three more fights to Hadley during his championship reign and one after Hadley lost his title to Godfrey. The last time they battled while Hadley was the colored champ was on December 7, 1882, when they fought in New York City for the Police Gazette Medal Championship of America. Hadley KO-ed Morris in the third round. Their last fight was on December 8, 1883-12-08, exactly one year and one day after they had last met in the ring. Morris apparently was outpointed by the ex-champ and retired from pro boxing. RecordIn a career that lasted from 1869 to 1891, Hadley racked up a record of 25 wins (14 by knock-out) against 13 losses (being KO-ed five times) with six draws.[1] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Charles Hadley|url=http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=40008&cat=boxer|publisher=BoxRec|accessdate=17 May 2012}} {{s-start}}{{s-ach}}{{succession box |before= Morris Grant | title= World Colored Heavyweight Champion | years= January 14, 1881 - February 23, 1883 | after= George Godfrey }}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Hadley, Charles}} 8 : 1846 births|Boxers from Tennessee|Heavyweight boxers|African-American boxers|World colored heavyweight boxing champions|Sportspeople from Nashville, Tennessee|Year of death missing|American male boxers |
