MCGOVERN AVENGES LONE BANTAMWEIGHT LOSE
Terry McGovern (15-2) avenged his lone Bantamweight loss in his 3rd title defense with a KO13 over #9 Chappie Moran (7-10-1). McGovern's only other loss came to Harry Lyons in a Featherweight fight.
McGovern lost to Moran back on 7-29-1900 in a TKO5 which was stopped because of a bad gash over Terry's right eye. McGovern punished Moran this time. Moran was cut over the right eye, under the left eye, and his right eye was swelling shut. McGovern dropped Moran once in the 11th and then for good in the 13th.
McGovern will end 1903 as the Bantamweight champ.
