...including Lightweight Champion Lou Ambers and Heavyweight Champ Rocky Marciano; of a heart attack; in Manhattan. Goldman learned his ring tactics in the streets of South Brooklyn, fought Bantamweight Champion Johnny Coulon to a standoff in 1912. Two years later, Goldman turned to training, and his black derby and horn-rimmed glasses became a familiar fixture at big-time bouts.
