Description:

Boxing Frozen in WWII
All major titles were frozen in 1941, and competition for them did not resume until early 1946. Four thousand professional boxers joined the military, including five world champions. Jacobs arranged for Louis to fight a benefit for the war effort with Buddy Baer, which ended in a one-round knockout.
