Martin wins EBU title

April 8, 1911

Terry Martin (6/5) (20-3-1) scored a TKO7 in a tougher than expected bout against Johnny Alberts (UR) (6-2-2) (Pre) to win the EBU WW title.

Alberts came out strong winning 3 of the first 4 rounds. He knocked Martin down in the 4th. Alberts was also cut badly under the right eye in the 4th.

His flurry trying to end the fight though seemed to wear him out. Martin dominated the 5th and the 6th, reopening the cut in both rounds. Finally the ref stopped it in the 7th as the cut was reopened again.

I had it 57-57 at the stoppage.

On the undercard

LW - Harry Mansfield (73/66) (11-7-5) UD10 Joe Heiser (37/54) (10-5-1) (both at pre)

BW - Joe Wagner (23/16) (17-15) KO9 Joe Bertrand (11/17) (15-3-3) 77-73 (bertrand at pre ... both fighters down)

HW - Herbert Slade (75/69) (21-18-2) KO5 Oliver Williams (107/109) (10-12-2)

WW - Pat Farley (24/27) (11-6-1) DRAW10 Cy Flynn (61/61) (9-11-1) (both at pre)

LW - Jack Grace (club) (9-14) UD8 Mark Higgans (UR/club) (4-9-2) (both at pre for this club fight ... Higgans fails to move to main as he is 5 below .500 at his 15th fight)
