The last 6 fighters that Terrible Terry McGovern (16-2) has faced have ended up recieving a 10 count. George Dixon (9-4) has now counted for 2 of those 6 times.

Dixon came out strong and took the fight to McGovern in the first. From the 2nd round on though it seemed everytime McGovern landed it stunned Dixon. It was a foul plagued fight for Terry as the ref deducted two points from McGovern both for holding and hitting.

Dixon's right eye began to swell in the 3rd. McGovern landed a straight right in the 5th and Dixon took a knee for a 2 count. Midway through the 7th McGovern connected with an uppercut that dropped Dixon for good.

This was McGovern's 4th title defense.

On the undercard

WW - Harry Lewis KO6 Harry Gilmore (Gilmore stepped up to WW and won the first 5 rounds before being KO'd in the 6th)
LHW - Jack O' Brien UD10 John Donaldson (O' Brien 9-0-1 will debut at #1 on the LBA rankings)
LHW - Al Greenfield UD10 Morris Harris
WW - Owen Ziegler UD6 Dave Holly (Holly stepping up to WW for this loss)
BW - Tommy Feltz UD10 Thomas Palmer (club fight)
