“Art Hafey’s prizefighting career began in Maritime hockey rinks and ended in the biggest fight venues the Pacific Coast had to offer. Along the way he knocked out the greatest fighter in Mexico’s history and rose to the rank of number #1 contender to the featherweight title. The most feared fighter during the West Coast Featherweight Wars, Art Hafey is forever remembered as one of the greatest never to contest for the world championship. Toy Tiger is both a celebration and an investigation into Art Hafey’s extraordinary Journey through the boxing jungle. From the sports corrupt “governing” bodies to his controversial trainer, the effects of a mysterious neuromuscular disorder and finally to an examination of the man himself, “Toy Tiger” presents “Irish Art Hafey” in all his neck-snapping, bone-crunching , unfulfilled Glory.”
