September 25th, 1906

Young Griffo (21-4-3) won a TKO9 over #2 Aurelio Herrera (10-3) to retain the LBA Featherweight title.

As in their first match the boxer was too slick for Herrera. Staying away from Herrera's power, Griffo landed at will swelling up Herrera's right eye in the 7th and cutting Herrera's right eye bad enough for the fight to be stopped in the 9th.

Herrera landed big power shots whenever he got close enough but it wasn't enough. He wasn't able to get enough shots in succession to really hurt Griffo.

Herrera will be back, but maybe not in the ring again with Griffo. The LBC title will open up in 1907 and Herrera should be in the race for that belt.

I had it 78-74 Griffo at the time of the stoppage. The official judges had it 77-75/77-75/79-73.

On the undercard

FW - Kid Broad (8-1) MD10 Ole Oleson (3-7)
