Jimmy McLarnin
James McLarnin, known as Jimmy McLarnin, (19 December 1907 – 28 October 2004) was an Irish-Canadian professional boxer who became two-time welterweight world champion and an International Boxing Hall of Fame inductee. BoxRec ranks McLarnin as the 11th best pound-for-pound fighter of all-time, the second best Canadian boxer of all-time after Sam Langford, and the third greatest welterweight of all-time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://boxrec.com/ratings.php?country=&sex=m&division=Welterweight&status=E&SUBMIT=Go )〕
==Background==
McLarnin was born in Hillsborough, County Down, Ireland, into a large Methodist family who emigrated to Vancouver when he was three. He took up boxing at the age of 10 after getting into a fight defending his newspaper-selling pitch. Former professional Charles "Pop" Foster recognised McLarnin's talent at the age of 13. He constructed a makeshift gym for McLarnin to train in, sure that he would one day be the champion of the world. The two of them would remain close, and when Foster died, he left everything he had to McLarnin.
