The E77's were a marked step up in quality from the awfully generic E75/E76 cards, but this one is such a bad card, that I like it.

Kaufman's claim to fame is being one of the contender cans Jack Johnson destroyed during his title reign in a heavily lopsided bout. Johnson doesn't seem to have held much interest in defending his title against strong competition, beating middleweights, light heavyweights, cans, mediocre heavyweights and a retired and a washed up old champ in his title defenses, while Jeanette and Langford were left without a title shot. Kaufman became an actor after calling it quits.

Yeah, that's a weird ass card.
