October 2, 1905

Charley Mitchell (18-4) revenge one of his loses with a TKO15 over Bob Armstrong (18-6-2) to win the new LBC title. Armstrong was never in the fight getting knocked down in the 2nd and 4th to dig a huge hole.

He won a few middle rounds before getting blasted in the later rounds. He was knocked down in the 10th, 11th, and 3 times in the 15th before the ref stepped in with less than one minute remaining.

Mitchell had lost a UD10 to Armstrong in April of 1904. This was his 6th straight win since which included impressive victories over Sam McVey and Tom Sharkey.

I had the bout 137-125 at the time of the stoppage. Ringside expert Dan Cuoco had it 137-127.

On the undercard

HW - Tom Lees KO4 Frank Slavin
LHW - Al Weinig DQ9 Leo Houck (Houck DQ'd in what appeared to be only his 2nd foul of the night)
HW - Charlie Wilson UD6 Joe Hess (club, Wilson a beginner)
Hw - John McDermont MD6 Herberito Rojas (club, Rojas a beginner)
LHW - Charlie O' Donnell UD6 Harry Baker (club, Baker a beginner)
