Fitzie Fitzpatrick was acclaimed by many boxing experts as one of the most thrilling battlers of all time. Fitzie scored one of the world's quickest knockouts in ring history on January 2, 1945, in Los Angeles against Gregorio Gonzales.
The blazing West Virginian, during the forties, was ranked a top contender for the Heavyweight crown held by Joe Louis. Harry Winkler of Ring Magazine tabbed Fitzie as ''the greatest two-handed puncher since Jack Dempsey.''
