A search on the internet suggests the widely accepted dates for the fights between Cribb and Molineaux are 1810 and 1811. These dates are reported by, among others, the International Boxing Hall of Fame, the National Portrait Gallery. Average Earthman 18:04, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)

He then fought a black American, former slave Tom Molineaux, to become world champion – a defeat he repeated in 1811. Should this not be a victory he repeated as the winner (Cribb) is the subject of the article? Thryduulf 02:29, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

• I'd agree with that. Average Earthman 09:36, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • OK, I've changed the article now. Thryduulf 09:47, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Barclay

The link to Barclay seems to be to another Robert Barclay entirely. Should be either corrected or the link removed. Epeeist smudge 08:57, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
