MAXIE ROSENBLOOM September 6, 1904 - March 6, 1976 210-38-26, 23 NDs, 2 NCs; 65 KOs Born in Leonard's Bridge, CT Rosenbloom was a clever boxer who was very difficult to hit cleanly with a power punch. At times, he appeared to strike his opponents with open gloves and, so, picked up the nickname "Slapsie Maxie." An extremely popular fighter, he took on the era's best competition: James Braddock, Mickey Walker and Harry Greb to name a few. Maxie fought an astonishing 299 fights before hanging up his gloves.
