Tommy Freeman (January 22, 1904 – February 20, 1986) was an American professional boxer who became a World Welterweight Boxing Champion on September 5, 1930 when he defeated reigning champion Young Jack Thompson.
He lost the title to Thompson the following year, on April 14, 1931.
Remarkably, the majority of his recorded wins were by knockout, and his losses were few, at under ten percent of his total fights.He was rated by The Ring magazine as a Top Ten Welterweight contender from 1926-1931.
His impressive win and extraordinary knockout record might be explained by the limited quality of competition he faced in Hot Springs where he fought many of his fights.
