Didn't he also fight in WWII?
He served. Fought a bunch of exhibitions to raise money for the troops while he was in the service. Got screwed by the IRS because they considered that "taxable income." Even though it was all going to the troops. Went bankrupt as a result and has to come out of retirement to make money when he had no business still fighting.

What i was getting at. His title was never held up in those fights. Therefore, he was champ throughout without having to put his title up.
