The Greatest Heavyweight of All-Time, didn't dodge the draft.
Won the Heavyweight title in 1937 against Braddock the "Cinderella Man". (Great Movie)
Fast forward 140 months and 26 title bouts, he was still the uninterpreted, undisputed, Champion of the World.
1948, he retired as Heavyweight Champion after defeating Jersey Joe Wallcott in consecutive fights.
Father time, Rocky Marciano, and IRS would catch up with him.
(after he retired, he would have to comeback and he fought 8 fights in 1951, Rocky was his only loss)
