In one sense, Ernie Terrell
came along at the perfect time. In another sense, the timing
of the angular heavyweight boxer with the long left jab
and frustrating. if not crowd-pleasing style couldn't have
been worse.
Terrell was born April 4, 1939, in Belzoni, Miss., but he
is associated to this day with his adopted hometown of Chicago.
The 6-foot-6 pugilist and singer posted a 46-9 record from
1957-73 and, in his prime, was a promiment figure in the
heavyweight division. He held the World Boxing Association
title from March of 1965, when he decisioned Eddie Machen
in 15 rounds, to February of 1967, when he lost a 15-round
decision to Muhammad Ali in an infamous unification bout
remembered for Ali's ceaseless taunting of Terrell.
