May 23 ,1911 inSaint-Eugène-d'Argentenay, Quebec and diedSeptember 14 ,1984 ), was a professional boxer in thewelterweight (147lb) division.Brouillard turned pro in 1928 and in 1933 won the NYSAC World Middleweight Title by defeating
Ben Jeby by KO. He lost the title in his first defense againstVince Dundee later that year.According to an "Oddities of the Sports World" newspaper column of Sept. 23, 1931, Brouillard started as a right-handed boxer. Early on, however, he broke some rib bones on his right side, hampering his ability to hit with his right hand. He therefore converted to a southpaw.
