Main Event
HW - Joe Goss (20/20) (26-6-4) learned a valuable lesson in his DRAW10 with Tommy Burns (54/50) (25-10-3). He has to fight every round or the judges will screw him.
Goss held a slight lead through 6 rounds and then dominated 3 of the last 4 rounds as Burns ran out of gas. Goss lost the 10th round. There were no knockdowns or cuts, but the right eye of Burns was swollen almost shut.
I had it 97-94 Goss, but the official judges had it 97-97/95-95/96-94
