McManus billed as Arena champion in 1951 by Dale Martin Promotions.
Arena was a magazine.
Was he the only Arena champion or were there others?

Now, I have a question. We have at least three men who reportedly held the Arena Belts and were DM British Champions.
McManus - welterweight and Dale and Fields - middleweights.
Is there any credible evidences that there were other DM British champs.
And by saying others I specifically mean champions of some other weight divisions, lightweights let's say or heavyweights.
And since Dale himself was their champ...I assume the very first champ of the DM pro wrestling company, my question is the early DM how big and influential it was in the South, are we talking late 1940s?
Thank you. WHAT A THREAD AND WHAT A BELT!
