Charley White (born Charles Anchowitz, 25 March 1891 – 24 July 1959) was an English-American boxer from Chicago, Illinois. Viewed by many as one of the best of his era, he fought from 1906 until 1923. He also lost a comeback match in 1930 against Henry Perlick, where he threw his famous left hook but Perlick countered with a right cross, knocking him down.
