Jack Carroll was the greatest attraction in the history of Australian boxing, and one of Australia's most popular sportsmen during The Great Depression. Fighting over 100 times in a 16-year career, Carroll was the Australian welterweight champion, the uncrowned Australian middleweight champion and a top contender for the world welterweight title in the 1930s. However, he is rarely mentioned among Australia's greatest ever boxers.
Jack Carroll and The Rise of Australian Boxing recounts Carroll's boxing career, from his days as a preliminary fighter to his struggle to secure recognition as Australia's leading boxer, to his record-breaking contests with top contenders Bep van Klaveren, Jimmy Leto, Izzy Jannazzo, Wesley Ramey, Jack Portney, Willard Brown and Tod Morgan.
Also featured is the golden period of Australian middleweight boxing that made boxing one of the most popular sports in Australia. Jack Carroll's contests with Australian middleweight champion Fred Henneberry and the great Aboriginal boxer Ron Richards were among the biggest fights in Australian boxing history. The story of the heated ten-fight rivalry between Fred Henneberry and Ron Richards as well as the savage trilogy between Jack Haines and Ambrose Palmer are told in detail for the first time in this book.
With detailed fight descriptions and rare interviews sourced from newspapers, Jack Carroll and the rise of Australian boxing is the first extensive career biography of one of Australia's forgotten sporting heroes and is a must-read for Australian sports fans.
