Henry Armstrong (Part I) - a podcast by BTR Boxing Podcast

Henry Jackson Jr. (December 12, 1912 – October 22, 1988) was an American professional boxer and a world boxing champion who fought under the name Henry Armstrong.
Henry Armstrong, a 5-foot-5½ buzzsaw, accomplished what no fighter before or since has ever been able to do -- he simultaneously held three world titles. He managed this unique feat before inflation hit boxing, back when there were only eight weight classes with no junior-this or super-that divisions.In the first part of Armstong's story, we present his journey into the sport and how early adversity would shape the future and lead to creating a feat that has since never been repeated.
