O' Brien Cruises To Lbc Title
January 15th, 1906
Philadelphia Jack O' Brien (14-1-1) scored a UD15 over George Gardner (12-6-1) to win his second title, this time the LBC. Coming off an October loss to Joe Choynski where he lost his LBA title, O' Brien scored an easy victory over Gardner.
In a relatively boring fight, neither fighter was ever in trouble. O' Brien suffered a cut over his right eye in the 8th, Gardner was never hurt.
I had the fight 148-140, Tom Trunzo ringside had it 147-140. The official judges scored it 148-138/146-140/145-141.
