Exciting card!
October 3, 1912
Title Fights
FLY - Jimmy Wilde (UR/2) (15-0)(pre) scored a MD12 over Percy Jones (UR) (10-1)(pre) for his 5th defense of the CBU Flyweight Title.
This was by far Wilde's toughest outing but it should have been a UD. Jones was slightly ahead after 5 but then Wilde took over winning the next three rounds and then dropping Jones in the 9th. Jones dropped Wilde in the 11th but then Wilde rallied to win the 12th.
I had it 115-111, the official judges saw it 116-111/113-113/115-111.
HW - Tommy Dugan (81/63) (18-12) scored a KO6 over Bill McKinnon (53/78) (17-9) to win the AABU HW title.
McKinnon dropped Dugan twice in the first round only to go down twice in the second round. The two traded bombs over the next three rounds before McKinnon went down for good in the 6th.
I had it 46-45 McKinnon at the stoppage.
