7th July 1889 - Rushcutters Bay

Billy McCarthy (8-1) TKO7(Cuts) Jack Langdon (1-11)

Dan Creedon (12-1) KO7 Paddy Norton (0-12)

Facile victories for Creedon and McCarthy.

British & Commonwealth Welterweight Title

Tom Meadows (9-3) KO12 Jem Carney (16-8)

With only 30 seconds left in the final round, Meadows delivered a perfect right hook to end the brave challenge of veteran Carney.

If the first fight between the pair was a close run affair, this was a walkover with the defending champion dominating from the start and had Carney on the canvas twice before he was counted out.

Meadows was a street ahead on all three cards, he is now likely to look for a fight against a top 5 ranked opponent.


WBF World Heavyweight Title

Peter Jackson (19-1) TKO7 Steve O'Donnell (7-5)

If Jackson was lethargic in his most recent defence against Charles Hadley, he made up for it with a dominant one sided display against his fellow countryman O'Donnell.

Jackson was on top from the opening bell in the 10th defence of his title.
