Leach Cross (b. 1886) was known as "the fighting dentist." He was indeed a dentist, born Louis Wallach in an Orthodox Jewish immigrant family on the Lower East Side. He won forty-three fights and fought five champions to draws. See Ellis Island to Ebbets Field: Sport and the American Jewish Experience by Peter Levine (Oxford University Press 1992). Carl Morris (1887-1951) was a Kentucky fighter known as "the Original White Hope." cyberboxingzone.com/boxing/morris-c.htm

I don't think this is the Mexican featherweight Joe Mandot, who fought from 1922 to 1928, but the American lightweight Joe Mandot, whose ring career ran from 1909 to 1921. See this more recently posted Bain photo of Joe Mandot.
