Tags: Boxer.

Boxer John Kraynak (December 15 1894 Plymouth Pennsylvania – June 14 1961 Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania USA) used the name Bob KO Sweeney because it was a more Irish-sounding name that would result in a bigger draw for his fights. He is perhaps best known for his bout against Bob Fitzsimmons for it is believed by some to be the first bout ever captured on film.
