Description
Scene at the Henry Armstrong-Jimmy Garrison fight at the Olympic. Typical of Garrison's gameness is the two-count knock-down scored by Armstrong in the eighth round. Before Henry could reach a neutral corner, Garrison had bounced back up and was ready to go again before Referee George Blake could pick up Timekeeper Billy Coe's count. Photo dated: October 25, 1939.
