He was born Harris Kraków and was a member of the Kraków fish-selling family of Maxwell Street, in Chicago's old Jewish ghetto.Professional career[edit]Notable opposition[edit]Levinsky was a rated heavyweight whose biggest wins came against ex-heavyweight champion Jack Sharkey on a 10-round decision, and ex-lightheavyweight champion Tommy Loughran, also on a decision. He was defeated twice by Primo Carnera,[1] and also lost to Max Baer.[2] Although he never fought for the title, Levinsky faced all of the top fighters of his era.Levinsky is best remembered for "freezing" in his fight with Joe Louis, who knocked him out in the first round.[3][4] On February 18, 1931, Levinsky also fought a 4-round exhibition with Jack Dempsey.[5] Dempsey had embarked on a tour of exhibition bouts and was contemplating a comeback. The Levinsky fight convinced him that he was through as a fighter.On November 19, 1935 Levinsky lost to professional wrestler Ray Steele in a boxer versus wrestler match in St. Louis, Missouri.[6] FREE SHIPPING IT COST ME AROUND $3.50 TO SHIPEBAY CHARGES 15% YOU'RE GETTING A QUALITY TIE AT A VERY REASONABLE PRICE I'M GOING TO BE LISTING SOME REALLY NICE LOTS!I HAVE OVER 2 MILLION NECKTIES IN MY COLLECTIONSAVE ME AS A FAVORITE SELLERUSA MILITARY VETERAN SELLER
