And did I mention he had a record of 100-9-7? Some pretty impressive stuff...

Could you imagine a grown man dropping a decision to a 9 year old, though? Jeez...

Weird, someone boxing at that age, is there a legal age to turn pro nowadays.

Found this site and picture on Nipper Pat Daly.

One of Mexicos greatest Baby Arizmendi was said to have started boxing as a pro since he was 7 but he was not officially a pro until he turned 13.

Arizmendi captured the World Feather title at age of 19 when he defeated Newsboy Brown. Throughout his career Arizmendi fought some of the greatest fighters of his time. Fidel LaBarba, Speedy Dado, Freddie Miller, Tony Canzoneri, Mike Belloise, defeated the great Henry Armstrong twice, not once by luck... No, twice by a good decision. Chalky Wright, Rodolfo Casanova (another Mexican great), Lou Ambers, Sammy Angott.
