Jackson cruises to 7th defense
June 28, 1908
Peter Jackson (18-3) wasted no time in his second bout with #5 Dixie Kid (15-12-5) scoring a KO3 this time instead of the UD15 that happened the last time these two met.
Jackson dropped Kid late in the second round and Kid got up but never recovered. Kid went down again early in the 3rd and then for good a few seconds later.
Jackson won his 16th straight bout after starting out 2-3.
On the undercard
LW - Dave Holly (10-5-6) UD10 Arthur Chambers (9-2)
HW - Nick Burley (13-7) UD10 Morris Grant (11-15-5) (grant fought at post for this fight)
HW - Larry Temple (12-0) KO10 Charles Hadley (15-13-3) (Temple stepped up to HW for this win) **note, obviously I created Temple a little too good as a 6 rated fighter, so I dropped him to a 4 after this fight**
HW - Bill Squires (10-11-1) UD8 Sid Russell (7-4) (Russell fought pre for this club fight, Squires continues to back his claim for the best 1 rated fighter ever)
FW - Billy Barrett (8-10-3) UD10 Chappie Moran (15-18-2) (Moran fought post and stepped up to FW for this club fight)
