March 20, 1920, NYC's St. Nicholas Arena: Two leading prospects, LHW Tommy Loughran and the popular MW Mickey Walker put their skills on display tonight, with Walker breaking with the tried and true path of facing only TCs and taking on another unbeaten prospect in an 8-rounder. But first up is Loughran, who takes on TC Larry Lemmons (0-4) in a scheduled 6-round bout.

Round one, Loughran works inside, hammers Lemmons with a big uppercut, misses with a follow-up roundhouse punch. He lands another uppercut, and controls the rest of the action with his jab. Strong opening round for Loughran.

Second round, Loughran is more aggressive, looking for a knockout. He bounces a right off the forehead of Lemmons, then staggers his opponent with a left hook. A clash of heads and Lemmons is cut above the left eye. Loughran's jabs also find their mark, and a mouse forms under Lemmons' left eye.

Round three, Loughran stays outside, doubles up on the jab, causing the cut to worsen. Lemmons is offering little in the way of resistance.

Round four, Loughran is once again the aggressor, and the cut above Lemmons' eye is becoming difficult to control. Loughran probes with the jab and scores with a big hook right before the bell.

Fifth round, Loughran forces his way inside, lands a three punch combo and follows with a hook to the head. Loughran cuts the ring off but can't finish Lemmons.

Final round, Loughran is in command and causes the cut to reopen, this time it leads to a stoppage and, as it was deemed the result of an unintentional butt, we go to the scorecards after five.

Loughran by UTD (50-45, 50-44, 50-44) to run his record to 4-0 (1 KO) and 342 PP.

Next up is Mickey Walker, and the "Toy Bulldog" takes a major step up to take on unbeaten Dave Rosenberg, who is 5-0 (1) entering the bout. It's the first real test for the popular and talented MW.

Round one, Rosenberg leads with a hook to the body, Walker moves inside, crowding his opponent and missing with a combination. A glancing right by Rosenberg slips through. Walker comes on strongly in the latter part of the round, landing a strong uppercut and a straight right to take the round.

Second round, Walker works the inside while Rosenberg assumes a defensive posture. Walker unleashes a strong right to the head, then lands several shots in succession. A bad cut appears above the left eyebrow of Rosenberg. The cut is bleeding profusely, and it leads to a quick stoppage.

Walker by TKO at 1:57 of round two to keep his slate clean at 7-0, all inside the distance. He now has 468 PPs.
