May 1866

It was a mix of styles this time around. While we saw preppy up-stater Roderick Johnston utilize that French style that we've mentioned our extreme distaste for, there was also quite a lot of the hitting and the pounding that we so enjoy. We're still wondering what happened to the ring's two early contenders though. Jesse Jaffe and Jesus Horne have 1 bout between the two of them since the tournament. We know that was a grueling affair, but come on, guys.

Code:
Date	   Winner              W-L-D K   Loser            W-L-D K  Venue   Group       Significance Matchup Result
5/4/1866   Merlin Vienns       1-2-1     Alan Briggs      1-1-1    Frank's Beginners   C-           B       Dr
While the other 2 judges scored the bout even, Doctor Chaos scored it 60-54 in Vienns' favor. Dr. Chaos is a jerk.
5/11/1866  Frank Seiler        3-3-1 1   Christian Barret 0-3-0    Frank's Beginners   D+           D       KO5
It is rumored that Barrett has been shopping for tomatoes between fights.
5/18/1866  Roderick Johnston   3-2-0 0   Michael Butler   2-4-0 1  Frank's Beginners   C+           C-      UD
Johnston wins easily using the disgusting French Style.
5/18/1866  Tony Wilson         1-0-0 1   Michael Reynolds 2-3-1 1  Frank's Beginners   B+           D       TKO3
Wilson looked impressive in debut bout.
