Dcw2003 Great article but I have a question. In the article it says
Easily one of the greatest fighters Palitz met was welterweight champion Jack Britton to whom he lost on March 8, 1920 in a ten round newspaper decision in Hartford, Connecticut. Britton held the World Welterweight title three times in 1915, 1916, and from 1919-1922 and held it at the time of his bout with Palitz. Palitz's bout with Britton came as a warm up for his attempt at the Connecticut State Welterweight title.
Was that a world title fight? BoxRec does not say so but if it was against a reigning World Champion I wonder. If so that should be mentioned in the lead since it would for sure meet WP:NBOX where the State championship bout would be less clear.Peter Rehse (talk) 13:25, 10 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
