July 4, 1910 Nevada

Today is the 113th anniversary of what is dubbed as “ The Fight of the Century “. 🥊

Jack Johnson v James Jeffries

Jack Johnson was the Heavyweight champion defending his crown while Jeffries was fighting not only to become champion but defending the white race in America. Sadly … Jeffries was K.O.ed in the 15 Round & ended his sad case of white superiority.

Tragically, a race riot ensued killing many after the fight.
