Just realized I haven't been giving Quintin Romero Rojas his proper due. While Cook's 45-54-2 record is rather mind-boggling by modern standards, he's got nothing on Rojas' 25-49-8 mark, largely the result of a little 5-34-4 slump over the last seven years of his career. Apparently, wins over Jack Sharkey (in his 10th pro fight), Johnny Risko and Jack Renault -- all in 1924 -- were enough to land him a spot in The Ring's rankings and= make him a marketable, exotic-sounding stepping-stone in the half of the decade.
Should be an interesting fight with Dempsey ...
