Wow, Snow Ball Beep Bop Killer...wish this guy was a HW!

I found Snowball while checking on the pro career of Cliff Eskridge, who was the US amateur FLY champ in the early 50s. Snowball's weight class wasn't given in boxrec. He could have been a FLY, BW or FW. As a pro Eskridge appears to have had a number of bouts at catchweight. Looks like he gave weight to opponents fairly often. Don't know why Eskridge stopped fighting as a pro. His career got off to a good start.
