Harvey keeps FLY title
May 26, 1911
Charley Harvey (CH) (15-3-4) scored a KO9 over Jack McDermott (2/3) (9-8) (pre) to retain the WBA Flyweight title.
Harvey was fighting a very lackluster fight and was down on all the scorecards when he scored the KO. Harvey was cut in the first under the right eye and it seemed to bother him and he couldn't put anything together. In the 9th Harvey caught McDermott with a right hook that put out the lights for the challenger.
I had it 78-75 McDermott at the stoppage.
