Excerpt from The Glasgow Herald - October 1896....Corrie Sanders entered the fight with a previously damaged hand that had not healed properly....Raymond Berenger was quicker and inflicted cuts over both of the South Afrikanner's eyes forcing the stoppage....Sanders had been down for a count of seven in the 8th round...In the only preliminary match Austria's Al Weinig copped a close decision over local lad Georges LeRoi after 10....
