*Delete Not all pro boxers are notable. Being Minnesota state champ fails to satisfy WP:NBOX. Notability isn't inherited from who he fought and coverage fails to meet WP:GNG. Jakejr (talk) 00:43, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep The fighter was a fully professional athlete with 77 professional bouts in 11 years, fought contenders and one future world champion, performed all over North America, was the Minnesota heavyweight champ, and has been inducted into the Minnesota Boxing Hall of Fame. I've expanded the references from one to three.  He isn't a household name today, but neither is Nap Lajoie. Brain Rodeo (talk) 21:51, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment: May meet WP:NBOX#3, if the WBA is considered to include its predecessor NBA. Per this and this, he was in the top 10 (presumably of the NBA) in 1936. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 11:20, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep I struck my previous vote. WP:NBOX is met by his Ring magazine ranking . Jakejr (talk) 01:25, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
