Herbie Kronowitz

[5] AThe Mead fight was one of Kronowitz's more widely publicized bouts, and Krononowitz was "thoroughly trounced" on September 5, 1947, at Madison Square Garden.

[3][6] On January 24, 1947, Kronowitz defeated Billy Walker, one of his more skilled competitors, in a rematch at St. Nicholas Arena in New York by a significant margin of the judge's scoring.

[8] Kronowitz defeated fellow Jewish boxer Harold Green before a riveted crowd of around 12,000 on June 14, 1947, at Ebbet's Field in New York.

[10] On August 4, 1947, Kronowitz defeated fellow Brooklyn middleweight Jerry Fiorello by a convincing number of judges points at Queensboro Arena in Queens in an eight-round unanimous decision.

Though Kronowitz proved to be the stronger puncher, rocking his opponent in the first and fifth rounds, Roach, the skilled recently discharged Marine boxer, showed better ringcraft, stamina, and technique.

An exceptionally trained boxer, Roach lost only one of 48 bouts while fighting for the Marines, and was considered one of the best fighters they had developed during the war.

[3][13] On August 11, 1949, Kronowitz defeated Vinnie Cidone in a main event ten round split decision at Hamilton Arena in Brooklyn, New York.

[3] On September 26, 1949, Kronowitz was sanctioned for his "poor performance" against Lee Sala in a ten-round unanimous decision that went against him at McNearney Stadium in Schenectady, New York.

[14][15] One of Kronowitz's better performances in a loss was against well rated Syrian opponent Charley Zivic before a crowd of 15,097 at Madison Square Garden on February 13, 1948, in a ten-round points decision.

Though a significant advantage in scoring was held by Zivic at the end, there were no knockdowns in the fight, a tribute to Kronowitz's endurance and ring craft.

With a constant two-fisted body attack, Flood wore down his opponent as the boxers slugged away in a give and take fashion through most of the fight.

Flood was on a considerable winning streak before facing Kronowitz and had lost only one bout in his busy two years of professional fighting.

[18] In what was one of his last high billing fights on December 12, 1949, Johnny Greco outpointed Kronowitz in a ten-round unanimous decision at the Forum in Montreal, Canada.

He was greatly respected and used the easy grace he gained from his years as a boxer to move quickly around the ring and take in every aspect of the bouts he refereed.
