Mccaffrey Dominates Coburn, Takes Title
July 3rd, 1907
#1 Dominic McCaffrey (17-7-3) scored a UD15 over champ Joe Coburn (16-8-4) to win his second title. This time it's the LBC, he previously held the LBF title.
McCaffrey was dropped in the 3rd round and that seemed to be his wake up call as he didn't lose another round the rest of the way. Coburn started carrying his hands low in the 4th, got knocked down in the 6th, cut under his right eye in the 6th, and cut on his mouth in the 9th.
Scott Lang ringside and myself had the fight 147-136. All the official judges scored the fight the same.
