Charles "Kid" McCoy (October 13, 1872 – April 18, 1940), born Norman Selby,<ref name=":0">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> was an American boxer and early Hollywood actor. He claimed the vacant world middleweight title when he scored an upset victory over Tommy Ryan by 15th-round knockout.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

OverviewEdit

Born in Moscow, Rush County, Indiana,<ref name=":0" /> McCoy would eventually weigh Template:Convert, stand Template:Convert,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> and go on to a record 81 wins (55 by KO, with 6 losses, 9 no decision, and 6 disqualifications). McCoy was noted for his "corkscrew punch" – a blow delivered with a twisting of the wrist.<ref name="Corkscrew-punch-info" group=lower-roman /> According to McCoy, he learned the punch one evening while resting in someone's barn after a day of riding the rails. He was of Scottish and English ancestry. He noticed a cat strike at a ball of string and imitated its actions. Whether true or not, McCoy was known as a fast, "scientific" fighter who would cut his opponents with sharp blows. He reportedly would wrap his knuckles in mounds of friction tape, to better cut his opponents faces. He was listed # 1 Light Heavyweight of all time in Fifty Years At Ringside, published in 1958.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> He was also regarded as a formidable puncher, and was included in Ring Magazine's list of 100 greatest punchers of all time.

Boxing careerEdit

Tommy Ryan was knocked out by Kid McCoy in the 15th round on March 2, 1896.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> This bout forms part of the lore of the McCoy legend. McCoy served as a sparring partner for Ryan, and absorbed many beatings at the hands of his employer. Ryan was notorious for showing little mercy to his sparring partners.

As a result, McCoy hated Ryan, and sought revenge. It is alleged that McCoy, who appeared thin, pale and frail, persuaded Ryan that he was seriously ill before their fight. McCoy, who was famed as a trickster, purportedly rubbed flour on his face so as to appear deathly ill. Ryan is said to have fallen for the ruse, failed to train properly and was not in top condition for the bout.Template:Citation needed Whether true or not, McCoy scored an upset win over Ryan in a fight billed for the American and World 154lbs Middleweight Title.

Another one of McCoy's tactics was demonstrated while McCoy was on a tour of Australia and some other Pacific Islands. To supplement his income, he would take on all comers. In one unidentified port, McCoy, who scarcely weighed Template:Convert, agreed to box a huge native reputed to weigh in excess of Template:Convert. McCoy watched him train and noted the man fought in his bare feet. When the fight began, McCoy's corner threw handfuls of tacks into the ring, causing the bare-footed challenger to drop his guard and raise up one foot. As soon as he did so, McCoy lowered the boom on his distracted adversary.Template:Citation needed

Although slight of build, McCoy captured the world middleweight championship by defeating Dan Creedon. McCoy never defended the title, choosing to abandon the crown to enable him to pursue the world heavyweight championship. Despite his handicap in size, McCoy battled the best heavyweights of his era, and defeated Joe Choynski and Peter Maher. He was defeated by Tom Sharkey and Jim Corbett. The Corbett fight was the subject of controversy, as the ending was suspect and Corbett's estranged wife claimed the bout was fixed. Although, she later recanted her statement.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

"The real McCoy"Edit

{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}}

It has been incorrectly asserted the expression "The Real McCoy" originally referred to Kid McCoy. One origin involves a local tough who bumped into McCoy and laughed when he was told the fellow he was annoying was Kid McCoy. He then challenged McCoy to fight, and upon reviving from being knocked out allegedly remarked "Oh my God, that was the real McCoy". However, it is believed that the first publication of the phrase with this spelling occurred in James S. Bond's 1881 dime novel, The Rise and Fall of the "Union club": or, Boy life in Canada, wherein a character utters, "By jingo! yes; so it will be It's the 'real McCoy,' as Jim Hicks says."<ref name="Bond 1881" /> Skeptics point out that Kid McCoy was only nine years old when this was published.<ref name="LATimes 2012 Oct 4" /><ref name="Real-McCoy-info" group=lower-roman />

Personal lifeEdit

McCoy was married ten times,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> performed in theater, and went west to California during the birth of the movie industry in Los Angeles. He appeared in films, including a scene fighting Wallace Reid in the 1922 film, The World's Champion.<ref name="Film-Fun 1922 Apr" /> McCoy was also friends with several movie stars of the day, including Charles Chaplin and director D. W. Griffith, who directed the 1919 silent film, Broken Blossoms, Selby's second film as actor.

Legal IssuesEdit

By the early 1920s McCoy was poor, addicted to alcohol and out of the movie industry. At this time he was involved in a romance with a wealthy married woman, Teresa Mors. Mors's divorce from her husband was acrimonious and dragged on until she was killed by a single gunshot to the head on August 12, 1924, in the apartment she shared with McCoy at 2819 Leeward (Unit 212).<ref name="NYTs 1924 Aug 28" />

The next morning, a reportedly disheveled McCoy robbed and held several people captive at Mrs. Mors' antique shop, and shot one man in the leg after he tried to escape. He also forced at least six other men to remove their trousers, and took their money. McCoy was apprehended and charged with the murder of Mrs. Mors. His trial took place in downtown Los Angeles. McCoy claimed Mrs. Mors committed suicide, while the prosecution claimed he murdered her for financial gain. The jury was split between first degree murder and acquittal. As a compromise verdict, McCoy was convicted of manslaughter.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

McCoy was sent to San Quentin, but was paroled from prison in 1932. Afterwards he worked for Ford Motor Company.

MarriagesEdit

Template:Nowrap Charlott Piehler, married Selby July 31, 1895, in Middleton, Ohio. Selby was then known as Charles "Kid" Young.

Extended familyEdit

Norman Selby was one of six siblings and third oldest. One of his four sisters, Grace Esther Selby (maiden; 1885–1916) was, from 1901 to 1908, married to Charles Thomas Henshall (1862–1928). Norman was an uncle to their daughter, actress Barbara Jo Allen (1906–1974).

Death and legacyEdit

McCoy took his own life in Detroit on April 18, 1940. Even his death was enigmatic.<ref>Kid McCoy … Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Cyber Boxing Zone)</ref> He committed suicide at the Hotel Tuller in Detroit<ref name="Britannica-Kid-McCoy 2009" /> by an overdose of sleeping pills,<ref name="Indianapolis-Star 2014 Feb 26" /> leaving a note behind. It read, among other things

Template:Cquote

In an apparent last attempt to drop his professional moniker, the note was pointedly signed as, "Norman Selby."<ref name="Casselman 2011 Apr 27" />

British professional wrestler Mark Boothman (the son of wrestler Phil "King Ben" Boothman) adopted the "Kid McCoy" name and won the British Lightweight Championship in 1987, holding it for three years.<ref>British Lightweight Championship - Wrestling-Titles.com - Accessed 14 August 2017</ref>
