Tex Rickard: Sports Greatest Promoter Part Two – Sports Bizarre
Manage episode 372633164 series 3370472
In part two, Tex Rickard moves to Argentina to raise cattle. Instead, he ends up in the middle of a war between Paraguay, Argentina, Bolivia, and Brazil, with Argentina asking him to lead their army.
Declining this, Tex returns to the United States, where he begins promoting a boxer by the name of Jack Dempsey, buys Madison Square Garden, and creates the New York Rangers.
Titus O’Reily and Mick Molloy wrap up their series on the greatest promoter of all time and how the mafia tried to end him.
