Baby Joe Gans (born Gerald Slaughter; died April 20, 1959) was an American professional boxer from 1922 to 1937. He held the Colored Pacific Coast lightweight title in 1926. Gans was also ranked by The Ring as the world's No. 1 contender at light welterweight in 1930 and welterweight in 1931.

Boxing career

Gans compiled a 28–2–6 record through his first 36 professional bouts, capturing the Colored Pacific Coast lightweight title during that stretch. On April 6, 1926, he faced Billy McCann and won a decisive ten-round decision, flooring McCann near the end of the eighth round, with the bell saving him from being counted out.

In 1928, former world heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey acquired a five-figure financial interest in Gans, the first fighter in whom he had ever held such an interest. That year, Gans traveled to the East Coast for the first time and found considerable success following his Madison Square Garden debut against Jackie Brady on May 31. On November 16, he faced Joe Glick in a bout that carried the prospect of a title opportunity, as world lightweight champion Sammy Mandell had agreed to face the winner. Gans, however, lost to Glick by decision over ten rounds.

Following his move to the welterweight division, Gans faced fellow rising contender Lou Brouillard on March 6, 1931, losing by decision over 10 rounds. Six fights later, Gans faced Brouillard in a rematch, by which time Brouillard had become the reigning world welterweight champion. Although Brouillard's title was not at stake, Gans fought him to a ten-round draw.

On July 3, 1934, Gans avenged his earlier defeat to Joe Glick by outpointing him over ten rounds. On September 6, 1935, Gans faced reigning world welterweight champion Barney Ross in a non-title bout at Multnomah Stadium in Portland, Oregon. Early in the second round, Gans was dropped by a left to the jaw and, after rising at the count of nine, was stopped by the referee.

Among Gans's other notable opponents were former world middleweight champion Ceferino Garcia, whom he faced three times; two-time world welterweight champion Jackie Fields, whom he faced twice; and Olympic gold medalist Bep van Klaveren. Gans retired from professional boxing in 1937 with a record of 133–25–15, including 57 victories by knockout. During his career, he spent a combined five years and nine months ranked among the top ten fighters in his division by The Ring magazine between January 1928 and May 1934.

Later life and death

Gans died of a heart attack on April 20, 1959, just hours before he was scheduled to work the corners of two fighters on a professional boxing card.
