This is Jack Johnson, the first African American national heavy-weight boxing champion of 1910-1915. His famous match against Jim Jeffries, a white, then retired former champion, was fueled with racial tension. Jeffries spoke of himself as the “Hope of the White Race” (in hopes to win the championship title back for white people). Jeffries defeat caused riots in the streets of many cities nationwide; so much that Congress actually passed a bill outlawing fight films in movie theaters.
The videos of the fight on YouTube are great.
