"Knockout: The Triumph and Power of Jack Johnson in the Boxing Ring" Step into the thrilling world of boxing as we delve into the legendary knockout moments that have defined this exhilarating sport. One such moment takes us back to a historic match featuring Jack Johnson, where he showcased his prowess against his opponent at Vickers-Armstrong Elswick Works in Newcastle Upon Tyne. In 1910, the world held its breath as Le Petit Journal captured an iconic illustration depicting Johnson's victory over Jim Jeffries at the World Boxing Championship. The color litho artwork vividly portrays the exact moment when Johnson's powerful punch sent Jeffries crashing to the canvas, sealing his triumph. The artistry of George Wesley Bellows further immortalizes these electrifying knockouts. His masterpieces "Counted Out, " "A Knockout, " and "Counted Out" (first and second stone) capture both the raw intensity and vulnerability experienced by boxers during their battles inside the ring. H. M. Bateman's depiction titled "The Boxers Who Fought to a Standstill" showcases two fighters locked in a fierce struggle, highlighting how sometimes matches end without a definitive knockout but with immense respect for each other's skills. Moving forward through time, we witness Roy Gumbs being counted out after being knocked out by Eddie Smith, reminding us of boxing's unforgiving nature. Similarly, Johnny Williams delivers a full-blooded straight left that sends Al Bernard reeling towards defeat. Even legends like Muhammad Ali faced their share of knockdowns during their illustrious careers. In one unforgettable image from Ali's world title fight, he is seen on the canvas after absorbing a powerful blow—a testament to both his resilience and vulnerability within this demanding sport. Finally, we encounter Jackie Turpin engaging in a ten-round welterweight contest from Leamington Spa—an enthralling display of skill and determination that keeps spectators on edge, eagerly anticipating the next knockout.
