Notes: Features professional boxer James "Gentleman Jim" Corbett (1866-1933); the fact that he is referred to as "the
heavyweight champ" in the story places it sometime between 7 Sep 1892 and 17 Mar 1897. Retold as T-748
"Dance, or Draw, Tenderfoot!" in Two Gun Kid 54 (Jun 1960) and as "Bare Knuckles in Boonville!" in The Rawhide
Kid 36 (Oct 1963).
