“Take A Dive Or Die!”

That was the word Terry Quinn received as he prepared for his elimination match before fighting for the Heavyweight title. There was never a question that Quinn was going to win the bout, but the mob wants their man taking the title away from Jack Dempsey. That meant Quinn had to lose in the elimination to clear the way for their fighter.

This story is a prequel to Terrence McCauley’s novel, “Prohibition”, and takes place in 1925 New York. Terry Quinn grew up in St. Vincent’s Home For Boys, and taught to box by Father Frawley. This is another outstanding Fight Card, and sets up the novel, “Prohibition” quite well.
