| مستخلص: |
The article features Canadian-born heavyweight boxing champion Tommy Burns. He was born Noah Brusso to German immigrants on June 17, 1881. He successfully defended his title 13 times, eight in the U.S. and five in Europe. His Australian tour in August 1908 negatively affected his career and earned him widespread contempt due to his failure to uphold the racist notion of white superiority. |
