From the Book Boxing Stories by Robert E. Howard
Sailor Steve Costigan a tough game man who, though never rated better than a second-class man, yet gave some first-raters terrific battles. This is Howard's main character in most of his stories. Very difficult to rate as he's dropped often but never KO'd.
From the story The Pit of the Serpent
One-Round Grannigan, former champion of the Sea Girl, lost to both Costigan & Slade by KO
Battling Slade—HW champion of the Dauntless, an overgrown Young Griffo. The dastardly villain of this tale.
Mike Leary of the Blue Whale who once beat Costigan.
Boatswain Hagney, HW champion of the British Asiatic naval fleet, who once KO’d Slade.
