Aurelio Herrera (14-8) scored a SD10 over George McFadden (9-9-2) for his first win at LW and to stop a streak of 2 straight losses and 3 out of 4.

Herrera came flying out of his corner in the first looking for an early KO and promptly got knocked on his butt. He recovered and was battling back by the end of the round. He took control of the fight winning the next 3 rounds, swelling up McFadden's right eye in the process.

McFadden won the 5th round and then Herrera won the 6th,7th and 8th. Herrera appeared worn out after the 8th and appeared to lose the last two rounds.

Mark Somogyi, ringside expert, and I both scored the fight 95-94 for Herrera. Two official judges scored it the same with the third scoring it 96-95 for McFadden.

On the undercard

FW- Tommy Kelly (15-16-2) MD10 Jack Downey (9-5) (Kelly stepped up to fw for this win)
HW - Harry Laing (10-2-1) UD10 Dick O' Brien (10-5-1)
LH - Charles Haghey (9-3) TKO9 Billy Stift (8-4)
WW - Dick Nelson (8-3) TKO2 Willie Schaeffer (6-1) (both fighters at pp for this club fight)
LW - Willie Fitzgerald (7-1-3) TKO7 Irish Jack Smith (6-6) (both fighters at pp for this club fight)
