The Jamaica Kid (b. 1896 – 12 June 1938) was a boxer born Robert Buckley (a.k.a. Robert Bulkley and James Buckley) in British Honduras who fought out of New Orleans and New York City as a professional from 1916 to 1928, primarily as a light-heavyweight. When he was based in Louisiana in the first year of his pro career, he won the World Colored Middleweight title from Eddie Palmer in New Orleans, a title he did not defend as he moved to New York City later that year.
