Although made at 117lbs in order to protect Stanley’s world title claim at 118lbs, I have included it on the basis that had Burns won inside the distance he would have undoubtedly claimed the championship at that weight. Burns already saw himself as a claimant at 116lbs, possibly due to his win over [[Young O’Leary]] (nd-w co 7 at the Olympic AC, Manhattan, NYC, New York on 6 September 1910), but at that moment in time it counted for little.		1911-01-27 (118lbs) [[Digger Stanley]] nd-drew 10 [[Frankie Burns]], National SC, New Amsterdam Opera House, Manhattan, NYC, New York, USA.
