Comments: All at Prime except Britton, Loughlin and Uren who start 1924 at Post. Ted Kid Lewis regained the WBA title belt, pushing his win streak to four. McFarland went 4-0 in 1923, downing Basham and Bermondsey Wells in UDs in addition to two NABF title defenses, running his win streak to six. Wells slipped to #2 after losses to Lewis and McFarland. Britton hit Post but managed a UD 10 win over Hamilton Johnny Brown. Basham won his CBU title bouts but lost a UD to McFarland. Latzo emerged despite successive losses to Irineo Flores (a MD) and Magirl (a KO) with UDs versus Jones and Simonich before his surprise USBA title win. Shevlin dropped to #6 after the loss to Latzo; his two title losses in 1923 snapped a three-bout win streak. Robson went 2-1 in 1923, scoring a SD over JWW Champ Pinkey Mitchell and a UD over I. Flores. Loughlin suffered a KO loss to Johnny Adams but recovered to post wins over Jimmy Jones and Kid Graves. Uren won three of four for the year, stumbling with a TKO loss to Marty Cross. Demsky once again rounds out the top 10, winning two of four bouts (a TKO over Sparr and a UD over Adams to offset losses to Cross and Shevlin).

Other Notables: Dropping out of the top 10 was George Levine, who suffered the title bout loss but recovered with a TKO win over Phinney Boyle to halt the slide. GBU titleholder Brown checks in at #12, his 14-3-3 (7) record worth 750 PPs as he moves into Prime career stage. Veteran Johnny Alberts fell from #6 to #13 after suffering a TKO loss to Brown, despite a TKO win over ex-Champ Magirl earlier in the year. Frenchman Albert Badoud lost the EBU title and tumbled all the way from #4 to #16, one spot below his successor, Piet Hobin, who has compiled a 20-10-1 (9) record, worth 675 PP. Leading newcomer to the rankings is Jack Zivic, who suffered his first loss to Willie Harmon but scored a KO over I. Flores and a UD versus JWW Galiano to wind up #17 with a 14-1-1 (7) mark. Harmon wound up one spot behind, with a similar 14-1-1 (8) record, avenging an earlier loss to Zivic. Tommy Freeman is off to a 15-1 (10) career start, winning all four bouts in 1923, including a TKO over Morris Schlaifer and a DQ win over Galiano.

Prsopects: Ted Krache wound up the year at 12-2 (5), winning a SD over Bobby Tracey but suffering a UD loss to Harmon. Pete August slipped to 11-3 (5) after two losses to Harmon and Jones after impressing in a TKO over Brit Alf Mancini. Young Jack Thompson was 10-0, all KOs versus TC opposition. Charley Feraci dropped a MD 8 to Eddie Roberts to finish the year at 10-1 (9). Baby Joe Gans ran his record to 9-0 (6), all versus TCs. Eddie Roberts impressed in a UD over Pat Corbett as well as the MD over Feraci in compiling a 8-0 (5). Filipino Lope Tenorio also remained unbeaten, at 8-0 (3). Jimmy McLarnin and Johnny Indrisano made successful pro debuts.

Retirements: Four WWs hung up the gloves in 1923.

Johnny Summers (UK) 1903-23 47-35-4 (19) CBU, GBU, EBU Champ Highest Rank: 1
Fred Kay (AUS) 1914-23 23-16-1 (5) No Titles Highest Rank: 9
Art Magirl (USA) 1911-23 34-9-1 (28) WBA Champ
Jimmy Fryer (USA) 1910-23 33-22-4 (19) No Titles Highest Rank: 13

Looking Ahead: Lewis is likely to face strong challenges from McFarland and newly emerging contenders such as Latzo and GBU Champ Hamilton Johnny Brown. Demsky and Brown are likely to emerge as challengers for Basham's CBU belt, while Zivic and Harmon will need another year or two to hit Prime. Cuban Manuel Quintero and Brit Jack Hood top the list of newcomers for 1924.
