June 2nd, 1904

Jack Johnson (16-1) won for the second time over # Dominic McCaffrey (8-5-3) with a UD15. But it was alot closer than last time.

There was alot of back and forth in this fight with neither fighter winning 3 straight rounds. McCaffrey was bleeding from the nose from round 7 on. Dom's big chance came during the 12th round when Johnson's left eye began to swell shut. It was bad enough that stoppage was imminent. But McCaffrey didn't press in the 13 or 14th, and Johnson stayed to the outside. Mccaffrey won the 15th but it wasn't enough.

I had it 144-141. Tom Trunzo at ringside had it 143-142. The official judges saw it 143-142/147-139/144-142.

It was Johnson's 5th defense.

On the undercard

LHW - Gunner Moir SD10 Chris Pearson
WW - Rube Ferns UD10 Otto Sieloff (Sieloff drops to club)
HW - Denver Ed Martin TKO5 Peter Felix
LW - Jewey Cooke UD6 Mike Cushing (Cooke still a beginner in this club fight)
BW - Frankie Neal UD10 Patsy Haley (club fight)
