Eric Seelig (July 15, 1909, Bromberg, now Bydgoszcz – January 19, 1984) was middleweight/light-heavyweight boxing champion in Germany in 1933. Because he was Jewish, he was stripped of his titles, and, in July 1933, he was threatened by the Nazis if he dared fight another match. He fled to France. His stripped titles were never restored. Seelig competed in France for a few years before emigrating to the United States via Cuba in 1935. He enjoyed success in the U.S. compiling a career record of 57 bouts, 40 victories (9 KOs), 7 draws, and 10 losses. His highest ranking in ''The Ring'' was #6 in 1938. ==External links== *(Jewish Sports website ) *(USHMM ) *(Als Boxen ein jüdischer Sport war ) *(Biography on website of his club Tennis Borussia ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eric Seelig」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
