Born: Robert James Fitzsimmons
Middleweight Champion 1891-97... Heavyweight Champion 1897-99... Light
Heavyweight Champion 1903-1905
The first triple title holder in history, Bob Fitzsimmons
won the world middleweight, heavyweight, and light heavyweight
championships in a career that spanned 27 years. As a young man,
Fitzsimmons worked as a blacksmith, and his punches held the power of an
iron hammer hitting an anvil. He defied age, consistently fought larger
men, and was crafty and resilient in the ring.
