Clarence Bouldin was said to be born on October 7, 1873. In a local publication from Cleveland it was noted that Bouldin was trained by Mark Lamb. Early in his career he was associated with wrestling legends like Dan Mcleod and Tom Jenkins, and known simply as the 'Cuban Wrestler.' One paper noted he was actually Jenkins' protege.
As his career progressed the nickname changed to the 'Cuban Wonder,' and he was touted as quite the light heavyweight wrestler. There are even notes of him winning a Light Heavyweight Championship, however, it's not clear if this was just a local title or if it's a hidden chapter in the overall World Title picture.
In the Corpus Christi Times obituary of Clarence it was said that aside from wrestling from the early 1900's, he also traveled the United States of America as an Irish tenor and musician as a part of a vaudeville act. Bouldin passed away in a woman's hospital On September 13, 1967.
