Canadian heavyweight Arthur Pelkey, pictured on the left, was a "White Hope" of the 1910s. Contemporary newspapers sometimes remarked on his physical resemblance to former World HW Champion Jim Jeffries (pictured right).

Interesting fight I'm looking forward to Saturday, @deanoboxing vs William Warburton. Deano is 6-0 (5KOs) and looks a great talent. Warburton coming off a 6th round win over Aaron Morgan. All know what Warburton can do when he turns it on - good test for Richardson.
