1920-Junior Welterweight
1920 JWW Report
This will be a short report.
No titles in place yet, so no title bouts to report.
Division Profile:
Total: 7 RL: 3 TC: 4
RL by Career Stage: all 3 JWWs at Pre-Prime
Rankings:
1. Pinkey Mitchell 15-4 (10) (205)
Comments: Mitchell struggled in 1920, with three successive losses once he faced RL opponents in the WW division: he suffered UD losses to Boyle and Sid Burns, and lost a SD to aging vet Jimmy Gardner.
Prospects: Basil Galiano recovered from a TKO loss to TC Dale Jacks with four straight wins, including a UD 10 over fellow JWW prospect Spug Myers, handing Myers his first loss. Galiano's record now stands at 13-1 (8) and Myers has compiled a 9-1 (5) mark.
Looking Ahead: Will still be a couple of years before any title bouts offered up in this division. No newcomers in 1921. Mitchell, Galiano and Myers will likely be paired with lower-ranked WWs and WW TCs for most of the year.
Predictions: Too soon to start making forecasts yet.
