    I love it, what a shot and what a story? I had read it before as McTigue was an Irish boxing hero but this shot tells so much more. Look at their dress and compare it with how boxers and their entourage are dressed these days. Can you imagine one of them striding across a field in a suit? Not likely even for those in the lower reaches. Well done NLI yet another beauty to set up our weekend!

    Swordscookie Why, thank you!

    Wow, very classily dressed gentlemen! Pity boxers don't look like this anymore!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sarah Bet there were no tattoos under the classy suits either!

    Poor Siki was shot dead in New York later on... Sounds like he was murdered by the cops, but I guess we'll never know. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battling_Siki#Post-war_career
