Irish Thought for July 5...

Irish-American Heroes

The first boxer to be recognized as Heavyweight Boxing Champion of the world was John L. Sullivan (retroactively, as no title of that name existed at the time).  He held the title for ten years, and was also the first American athlete to earn more than a million dollars.

Am I the only thinking it would be awesome to see a modern boxer with a mustache like the one pictured?
