At 5'6" and having an arm span over 6 ft that ended with a fist that packed a pulverizing punch, Langford was a formidable opponent. He died in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1956, a year after his election into the Ring Magazine's Boxing Hall of Fame. He was the first non-champion ever to be so honoured. In 1972, Weymouth Falls erected a plaque to his memory in its community centre. And in 1996, the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada recognized his contribution to Canadian history by rating Langford as one of the top ten boxers of the 20th century.
