Document Summary
Jj often the last one standing in the blindfolded brawl organized by white men. Johnson taught by a master while in prison for 23 days: did not cater to the fans that paid to see a brawl, baffled opponents and won him fights. Johnson called lazy the way he fought but when a white boxer did the same they were praised: every positive trait they tried to turn it into a negative trait. The forbidden district: his demeanor made it hard to think of him as a prize fighter, beat jack jeffries easily. Johnson took it easy on blacks but not on whites.
