February 1900

The crowning of a new UKBC Champion highlights the months results

Feature fights February-1900
Joe Goss 20-4-0 (4) VS Jack Gardner 23-0-0 (23) UKBC Title
Joe Goss went into his first defense of the UKBC title hoping to outbox the unbeaten challenger and avoid his power. A noble plan, but Gardner was able to hold serve in this area, while landing some stinging right hands, one of which decked Goss in the 6th. The champ came back and cut Gardner in the 7th, but could not capitalize as Gardner hammered him. scoring a second and final knockdown at 2:12 of the 12th.
Gardner KO 12 Goss - Wins UKBC Title
Mike Tyson 16-1-0 (16) VS Fred Russell 20-4-1 (14)
Russell came into the bout promising to take the action to Mike Tyson, yet after tasting a Tyson hook to the liver in the first 30 seconds of the bout, those plans changed. Tyson, sensing Russell was looking to survive went into attack mode. Trapping him in a corner and hammering away, Tyson split his gloves with a ferocious uppercut that deposited Russell on the canvas, where he was counted out at 2:44
Tyson KO 1 Russell

Elmer Ray 19-2-0 (18) © vs Chris Byrd 17-0-0 (7) USBA Title
Tommy Burns 22-0-0 (17) vs Randall 'Tex' Cobb 20-1-0 (18)
Burns and Ray, ranked 17th and 14th respectively will look to vault into the top 10, though neither has an easy path as the slick boxing Chris Byrd will look to lift Ray's United States belt and Tex Cobb is sure to test the unbeaten Canadian with his rough and tumble style.
