The entry's text says, "Should NOT be considered title fight since the bout was fought with two-minute rounds" while 20 rounds x 3 minutes are recorded. It should also be specified which title was not at stake.

In this case it seems to make sense to specify which title was not at stake. The phrase "Should NOT be considered title fight" is not added to every nontitle fight (which would be pointless) but to this one, which may suggest that for whatever reason -- perhaps it was claimed somewhere -- one could believe that it is a title fight.wouter wrote:The World Heavyweight Title was not at stake nor the Polish Bantamweight Title.Emaster wrote:Not specified yet.Emaster wrote:It should also be specified which title was not at stake.
EDIT: "Billed British 112lbs title" has been added to the comment field.
