Harold Dade - The Forgotten Champion

Harold Dade, the forgotten champion:
"the bantamweight champion for a
brief moment in time. Life for Harold was
also brief. But, we can never forget about
this ring warrior who should be remembered
for his amateur achievements and being
called bantamweight champion of the world.

by Brian Zelley



                                                Harold Dade - Boxer  Rin ecord per Box Rec

* When we look at he ring record, on the surface,
 Harold Dade appears to be just an average boxer,
but for a moment in time the two time Chicago
Golden gloves champion was the bantamweight
champion of the world briefly in 1947.


* Harold would have many of his early fights
In California and he won the title from capable
champion  Manuel Ortiz, but in a rematch, 
Ortiz would regain the crown.
