McFarland [and] Ritchie (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Harry Angstrom said:
    Willie Ritchie has other LOC photos in this series. He fought Tommy McFarland in September 1911 according to this site: cyberboxingzone.com/boxing/ritchie.htm
  • workable sidewalk said:
    This is really strange because my grandmother, Grace McFarland, divorced and married again becoming Grace Ritchie.
  • Art Siegel said:
    This appears to be Packey (sometimes spelled Packy) McFarland. He did not fight Ritchie. Here is another Bain Collection photo of him from the same session:

    I believe you are correct artolog, it does look like Packy McFarland. I will ask for our records to be updated.

Ritchie, Rivers (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Richard Norton said:
    Willie Ritchie and Mexican Joe Rivers fight on July 4, 1913.
    www.nytimes.com/1913/07/05/archives/right-cross-blow-wins...
    Right Cross Blow Wins For Ritchie; Rivers Knocked Out In Eleventh Round Of Vicious Fight For Championship. A wicked right cross -- the same blow which was so effective against Ad Wolgast -- proved too great a stumbling block to Joe Rivers in his attempt to wrest the lightweight title from Champion Willie Ritchie at the Eight Street open-air arena here to-day, the Mexican being knocked out in the eleventh round of a scheduled twenty-round battle.
    I created a Wikidata entry for the fight:

  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks Richard Norton, we'll add that info to the catalog record.
