March 1907
Good title month with 5 title fights on tap. Several titles could change hands
HW - (LBF) John L. Sullivan (23-5) vs. #2 Charley Mitchell (20-6)
LHW - (LBC) Jack Root (22-6-1) vs. #2 Jack O'Brien (16-2-1) (Rematch of their November fight which was stopped due to a controversial cut)
MW - (LBA) Stanley Ketchel (16-2) vs. #2 Bob Fitzsimmons (22-2) (Fitz scored a TKO4 in their first bout)
WW - (LBA) #7 Charley Hitte (8-5) vs #2 Kyle Whitney (9-0-1) (vacant title from Tommy Ryan moving up to MW)
BW - (LBA) George Dixon (19-5) vs. #3 Terry McGovern (21-5-2) (4th fight between the two McGovern up 2-1)
I see Sullivan retaining title. O'Brien, Fitz, and McGovern taking titles and Whitney winning the vacant title.
