About Tom Allen Boxer
Tom Allen (23 April 1840 – 5 April 1903) was a bare-knuckle boxer who claimed the Heavyweight Championship from 1873, when he defeated Mike McCoole, until 1876, when he lost to Joe Goss.
For much of his earlier career he fought just above the middleweight range, around 165-75, making him smaller than most of the heavyweights he met.
