From the Monday afternoon edition of the Halifax Herald...Includes report on the card staged at the Armoury featuring two heavyweight bouts and three showcasing the little fellows...Klondike Haynes cements his claim as Chicago's top heavyweight with crushing of Frank Childs...Bob Fitzsimmons bounces back from defeat by Peter Jackson with one-sided drubbing of Phila Jack O'Brien...Kid McCoy complains of fast count by referee Charlie White after being decked by Lionel Butler...Hank Griffin's camp protests stoppage because of a cut they claim was caused by an intentional headbutt...Joe Goddard says he was ready to continue fighting despite being dropped three times to the canvas in the eighth round of his bout with George Godfrey but Referee Francis declares Goddard was glassy-eyed and defenceless...Tom Sharkey has no sympathy for John L Sullivan after the latter blamed his most recent defeat on his poor condition and the effects of the drink...
