It has been (and will continue to be) interesting to see how Jimmy Wilde progresses in your universe.....(he's already learning how to overcome adversity / cuts).

And I won't be able to help but to root for old Digger! If he ever does earn that title shot. Hopefully his Mgmt keeps the TC's coming......(maybe one step up fight during his streak here).

71 of the 148 were in action this month. They went 60-8-3 against them.

Only three fighters moved up to club

HW - Marty Cutler (2-4)
LW - Gene "sister kisser" Delmont (1-1-4)
FLY - Earl Puryear (5-0-1)

Next month the 1972 fighters will join the beginners.

[mh2365]

Bill Curran (12-12) just defeated a TC. He is at pre-prime so everytime he is scheduled to fight he has a 50% chance of fighting a TC.

Before this win he had lost 8 straight and not once had he been matched up against a TC.

During the streak he lost to

John Dwyer (8 rated)
Jack Johnson (12)
Peter Courtney (7)
Billy Woods (1)
Sailor Burke (5)
Jack O'Brien (10)
John L. Sullivan (10)
Jim Flynn (2)

Pretty sure someone needs to fire his manager!

Excellent stuff Mike.
Gotta ask, where does 'Sister Kisser' come from in Gene Delmont's name?

[mh2365]

from the saying "a tie is like kissing your sister" ... 4 out of his 6 bouts have ended in a draw.

[mh2365]

61 of 167 main division fighters are in action with 19 facing TC's. They went 15-2-2 against them.

17 of 48 club fighters are in action with 7 facing TC's. They went 7-0 against them.


Title fights

IBF - Sam Langford (35-6-2) vs. #3 Henry Pearce (20-1) (first meeting) (Pearce's CBU title is not on the line, Langford's WBA and WBC titles are not on the line) (Langford has won 15 in a row, 9 straight by KO)

EBU - Paul Samson-Korner (20-3) (pre) vs. Frank Mantell (22-8) (Samson won a TD5 in 2/11, Mantell's last regional fight unless he wins)


6 more fights are on the fight cards

[mh2365]

27 of 71 main division fighters are in action this month with 3 facing TC's. They went 2-1 against them.

13 of the 31 club fighters are in action with 7 facing TC's. They went 7-0 against them.

Title Fight

IBF Charles McCoy (35-10-3) vs. #16 Bob Fitzsimmons (40-5) (by TKO5 in 12/08, KO5 12/07, by TKO14 06/03)

Fitzsimmons was forced back to 100 pp when he came back from retirement, that rule has since been banished. He is getting this opportunity because of the WBA title tourney which knocked out 8 top ranked fighters from being eligible for this shot

Four other fights are on the fight cards

WBA Title Tourney

1. Jack Dillon (26-1) vs. #8 Alfred Kearns (15-1-3) (pre) (Oct.)
4. Georges Carpentier (24-4) vs. #5 Bob McAllister (20-3) (Oct.)

2. Fred Russell (22-9) vs. #7 John Wille (22-6-1) (sept)
3. Frank Girton (15-2) vs. #6 Leo Houck (29-12-3) (sept.)

Tough top half of the bracket.

[Romdawg88]

Carpentier/McAllister should be a hell of a fight. That bracket is pretty lopsided, I think it's safe to say that the winner is coming out of the top half.

[mh2365]

Yeah Houck is the only one who has a shot and he hasn't performed well in big fights.

There will be a WBO tourney at Middleweight also.

[SAL]

Dillon will run the table and claim the WBA strap IMO.

[Romdawg88]

Yeah, Dillon has to be the favorite in the tournament. I'm going to be rooting for McAllister to take the belt though.

[mh2365]

Yeah I see Dillon winning it also.

In the MW division both Ketchel and Klaus are scheduled to fight this month, with 8 top ranked guys involved in the WBO tourney I may force a unification bout between the two.

They have a 25% chance of it happening but if it doesn't and they both don't have a top 20 opponent, I will force it.

[mh2365]

35 of 106 main division fighters are in action with 7 facing TC's. They went 7-0 against them.

13 of the 21 club fighters are in action with 5 facing TC's. They went 5-0 against them.

Title Fights

WBA/C - Stanley Ketchel (WBC) (33-8) vs. Frank Klaus (WBA) (26-6-1) (Klaus won by KO8 in 3/10) (Unification bout)


An amazing 11 other fights on the fight cards. Undefeated fighters and fighters rated above 8 make the cards, so some top MW's are in action this month, including 3 first round bouts in the WBO title tourney

Tourney

1. Billy Papke (26-5) vs. #8 Jimmy Murray (17-4-1)
4. William Sheriff (16-0) (pre) vs. #5 Eddie McGoorty (27-4-1) (Sheriff's CBU title will not be on the line)

2. Jack Fogarty (22-4-1) vs. #7 George Chip (17-2-1) (pre)
3. Jeff Clarke (21-3) vs. #6 Young Mitchell (19-1)

Clarke vs. Mitchell should be a good one. I expect to see a Mitchell-Papke title match. All bouts except Fogarty vs. Chip will be in September.

[mh2365]

24 of the 76 main division fighters are in action this month with 8 facing TC's. They went 7-1 against them.

9 of the 18 club fighters are in action with 3 facing TC's. They went 3-0.

Matty Mathews retired despite winning his match.

Title fights

none this month

Five fights on the fight cards

[mh2365]

Young Griffo (39-8-7) will put his WBC and IBF titles on the line against WBO champ Jack McAuliffe (43-7-2). This will unify 3 out of the 4 titles. With Abe Attell holding the WBA title.

McAuliffe is post prime but has a 20% chance of coming into the fight in prime condition.

This is their first meeting. Griffo is 6-0-1 at LW.

[javier_83]

what do you do to decide if he return to prime or not??

[mh2365]

All post -prime fighters have a 20% chance to fight a title fight at prime. I just use a RNG.

[mh2365]

44 of the 127 main division fighters are in action this month with 12 facing TC's. They went 10-1-1 against them.

18 of the 37 club fighters are in action this month with 8 facing TC's. They went 7-1 against them.

Title Fights

(WBC/IBF/WBO) - Young Griffo (39-8-7) vs. Jack McAuliffe (43-7-2) (post) (first meeting)

(WBA) - Abe Attell (38-12-3) vs. #8 Harry Lyons (36-18-1) (6th meeting, Attell is 2-3 against him)

(USBA) - Kid Fredericks (17-1-1) vs. Knockout Brown (18-1) (first meeting)
