The first was in ‘93, when, after coming into some prominence by training Corbett at Carson, and beating Rublin and Choyn- ski in twenty rounds each, he fought Peter Jackson. Peter was the old {dol of San Franciscans, even as much as was Jim Corbett. Jeffries knocked out the veteran with ease in three rounds, He then knocked out Pete Everett, at that time touted as a wonder, in three rounds.
