	Cyber Boxing Zone -- Battling Siki
		Siki lost in the tenth round, and 1925 proved not only to be his last year in the ring, but his last on Earth.

		Siki's wake was held in Harlem, and the former champion was viewed by 400 to 500 people.

	Siki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sikis, like their Wiki kin, are inherently collaborative and open to contribution from a large community of users.
		The ownership of basic Siki software modules and intellectual property are all public and shared, but the ownership structure of a particular siki could be distributed amongst its contributors who are compensated entirely based on level of participation in the upkeep or value contribution to the business.
		His first envisioned utilization of a Siki might be to facilitate some manner of radically P2P entertainment network that strains existing legal boundaries of corporate behavior or liability, such as a market for trading of video-based dares.

	Battling Siki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Siki claimed that he had agreed to take a dive, but when he saw and heard the 50,000 cheering spectators suffered a change of heart and fought all out to win.

		Siki was known to fire his revolvers in the air in public as a means of prompting his two great danes to do tricks.

	The Swift Rise and Fall of Battling Siki
		Siki, a wild swinging brawler with a crude style (think Ricardo Mayorga), has not gone down in boxing annals as a great fighter, but his story is one the most intriguing ones in the sport’s history.
		Born in Senegal in 1897, Siki (born Baye Phal) moved to France as a youngster, where it was rumored that an actress had taken a liking to him and thus moved him in with her.
		Siki was also arrested for pulling a knife on a policeman and slashing his uniform (he was fined $5) and of being “dangerous” when drunk.

	Irish Boxing
		One of boxing's most bizarre characters, Siki (he was born Louis Phal in the French West African colony of Senegal) startled Parisians by parading along the fashionable boulevards with a young lion on a leash.
		Siki, inspired by his opponent's obvious discomfort and not wanting the fight to go to a points decision, went all-out for a summary execution.
		While Siki continued his download slide until his body was found in the gutter of the notorious Hell Kitchen area of New York after being shot, McTigue quietly enjoyed the feeling of being a world champion.

	Book Review: Battling Siki - A Tale of Ring Fixes, Race, and Murder in the 1920s
		The story of Siki, transmitted through the pens of contemporary journalists and echoed through the decades by essayists, may in fact be one of the most troubling misrepresentations in the history of the sport.
		The commonly held perception of Siki has persistently alluded to his been a ‘child of the jungle;’ a feeble minded and uncivilized interloper unable to properly comprehend and adjust to his existence in a ‘civilized’ environment.
		Indeed Siki’s excursion to the troubled and battle scarred environs of the newly independent Irish Free State was done under the desperate plight he found himself in because of the racially motivated backlash which saw him banned from fighting on the European continent and on British soil.

	UW's Distinguished Pianists

	Clare Museum: Riches of Clare: Kilnamona's World Champ
		Although Siki had proved himself to be popular with the public, as was typical of the time, he was often on the receiving end of ridicule and racism, even from his own handlers.
		Siki managed to gloss over the negative cruelty of the press, and relished his new found celebrity status, where he played the role of exhibitionist, often walking the streets of France with a pet lion on a leash.
		Siki’s last chance of redemption came on March 13th, 1925, against Paul Berlenbach, but it was not to be, Siki lost in the tenth round.

	About Siki
		The boxing championship has changed hands, but national sporting glory has not suffered, because Siki, a child of Senegal, is in consequence a son of France, and hence a Frenchman.
		From the colonial viewpoint, a Carpentier - Siki match is worth more than one hundred gubernatorial speeches to prove to our subjects and proteges that we want to apply to the letter the principle of equality between races.
		Before, Siki was glorified because he made Carpentier’s nose swell; today, he has not touched a hair of M. Cuny’s head and yet he is disgraced.

		Battling Siki (1887–1925) was once one of the four or five most recognizable fl men in the world, and was written about in detail by such figures as Ring Lardner and his son John, Damon Runyon, and Westbrook Pegler.
		The colorful Siki spent a fortune partying and carousing, was arrested for firing a pistol in the air, and was frequently seen on the streets of Paris, dressed in flashy clothes, walking his pet lion cubs on a leash.
		In fact, the real Siki, while he did certainly like to party, was also an intelligent and socially conscious person, who detested the media’s image of him as a simple-minded drunken savage.

		Since being bitten by a lion in a Paris café, Battling Siki has faded from the public eye.

		In Philadelphia, Battling Siki, Senegalese conqueror of Georges Carpentier and one time holder of the light heavyweight championship of the world, lost a ten-round decision to Jack Taylor, a Senegambian who learned to box by felling cattle with a sledgehammer in the Omaha stockyards.
		Said W. McGeehan, able sporting editor of The New York Herald: "In spite of the fact that he has shown himself to be just a mediocre boxer, Siki will continue to get matches because of his eccentricities.
		The more sedate colored boxers naturally are indignant over this, and there are probably about a dozen of them who can best Siki in any kind of a bout.
