It's not just that simple?

Rob,
That's my view as well. Nineteen scrappers/boxers are delineated on the checklist back, which also states that there are "eight others." The 8 others are:
2 more Johnsons
1 more Burns
1 more Nelson
1 more Sullivan
1 O'Brien's fighting partner (unnamed)
1 other unnamed fighter on the Rawlins card
1 other unnamed fighter on the Sharkey card
= 27
In other words, you count all the bodies. Plus, the two anonymous fighters, although unidentified, are "scrappers" nonetheless! Finally, the arms/fists are simply body parts, rather than bodies ... As such, they are not scrappers!
