Details
Roger Donoghue (November 20, 1930 August 20, 2006) was a prizefighter who taught Marlon Brando how to box for his role in the 1954 movie On the Waterfront. Donoghue was born in Yonkers, New York. His father, an Irish immigrant, was a taxicab driver. Donoghue began boxing in a ring set up in the back of a pool hall. He won 29 or 31 amateur bouts, and turned professional at age 18. Of his first 27 professional fights, he won 25. His purses covered college tuition for his brother and sister. Donoghue's first fight in Madison Square Garden was on August 29, 1951. Donoghue's opponent was another 20-year-old, George Flores, whom he had knocked out in a match two weeks prior. Donoghue knocked out Flores in the eighth round. The blow resulted in Flores' death on September 3, 1951.
