Jackson wastes no time in mismatch
January 10, 1908
Young Peter Jackson (15-3) scored a KO1 over mismatched but #7 Dick Burge (12-16-3) for his 4th defense of his LBC Welterweight belt.
The LBC defended the match saying that Burge met the qualifications and was the mandatory fighter. They will look into wether or not to allow fighters on the downside of their career in the title match again even if they meet the qualifications.
On the undercard
WW - Terry Martin (9-0) UD10 Mike Sullivan (10-13-4)
HW - Jem Mace (12-8-2) TKO10 William Miller (11-13-3)
FW - Kid Landfield (4-12) UD8 Eugene Hornbacher (6-1) (Hornbacher fought at pp for this club fight)
FW - Jack Roberts (5-5) UD8 Tommy Connelly (5-2) (both fighters at pp for this club fight)
HW - Bill Curran (6-1) TKO3 Joe Goddard (11-14) (Curran fought at pp for this club fight)
