September 1906
September brings us 3 title fights
LHW - Joe Choynski (20-7) vs. #1 (FC) Jack Root (21-6)
---- these two have met twice before with Root winning both 12-16-1901 TKO3 and 08-11-1902 KO6 for the title. This is Choynski's 3rd defense
LW - Joe Gans (22-1-1) vs. #3 Jewey Cooke (7-2-1)
----- Gans making his 12th title defense should be another easy bout
FW - Young Griffo (20-4-3) vs. #2 Aurelio Herrera (10-2)
----- long awaited first title shot for Herrera. He will try to avenge one of his losses. Griffo won a UD10 on 04-26-1905. Griffo second defense, fought to a draw last time out.
