Jan. 19, 1924 -- St. Nicholas Arena, NY City: LH Prospect "Slapsie Maxie" Rosenbloom makes faces his fifth opponent, TC Doug Bremer, in a scheduled six-rounder here tonight.

Round one, good lateral movement by Rosenbloom, who unleashes a fiercesome hook to the body. A short uppercut in close causes Bremer to retreat to a neutral corner. Rosenbloom follows with a huge shot, and Bremer slumps to the canvas for an eight-count. Still plenty of time left in the round, but Maxie can't follow up despite landing several telling blows, including a right to the head and body. Bremer survives the onslaught, but just barely.

Second round, Rosenbloom moves inside while Bremer wisely elects to stay outside. Rosenbloom opens the action, landing to the chest and neck of Bremer, who has a hook blocked by Maxie. Rosenbloom connects with a hook and follows with an uppercut that has Bremer reeling. Rosenbloom retreats, flicks his jab but misses with a combination. A huge round by Rosenbloom, whose superior hand speed dominates the action.

Round three, Rosenbloom lays back on the outside, not much action for the first part of the round. Rosenbloom shoots an uppercut to the chin of Bremer, then Maxie is warned and has a point deducted for a low blow. Rosenbloom hitches up his trunks and connects with a jolting uppercut. Bremer is once again on the defensive, as Slapsie Maxie digs a right hook to the body and follows with a right to the chin. Bremer fights back with an uppercut of his own, right before the bell when Rosenbloom connects with a jab. Another strong round for Rosenbloom in the books, despite the foul.

Fourth round, Rosenbloom is pressing the action on the inside. Rosenbloom is short with a right, and Bremer misses with an uppercut. Rosenbloom snaps a stinging jab and then unleashes a part hook, part uppercut that punishes his opponent. Once again, the round is Maxie's by a wide margin.

Round five, Rosenbloom is looking to finish Bremer who makes a last stand by moving inside. He backs Bremer up with the jab, but can't follow up. A three-punch combo is just off target, but then Rosenbloom's uppercut finds the target. Rosenbloom controls the action for the rest of the round, flicking his jab and dancing around the ring.

Final round, Rosenbloom is content to stay outside. Maxie scores with a right that lands flush, then follows his jab with a flurry that connects to the head and chest of the hapless Bremer. One last exchange from Bremer, who does well just to last the distance.

The judges' scorecards are identical -- a 59-53 unanimous verdict in favor of Rosenbloom, after subtracting a point for the low blow in round three.

Maxie moves to 5-0 (2) with 374 PPs, and he will shift to Pre-Prime and the world of eight-rounders with his next bout set for February.
