September 2nd, 1911
In an IBF title eliminator fight Joe Butler (7/4) (35-9-3) scored a UD12 over Young Hank Griffin (6/11) (12-2-2) (pre). Butler never really had any trouble but was cut over the right eye in the 4th. It was reopened a couple of times but he stayed away from Griffin the last couple of rounds. I had it 118-110. The official judges had it 116-113/118-110/118-110.
In the co-feature, Young Mitchell (UR/7) (14-1) lost the USBA title to Al McCoy II (UR) (14-0) by way of a UD12. Mitchell just never showed up for this fight and paid the price. He was knocked down twice and I had it 119-110. The official judges had it 117-111/117-111/117-112.
