Hey All,
I was looking at some references for some old Sonny Liston fights, and I found the second Patterson fight. Sources, several of them list the referee as "Harry Krause". Mr. Krause's first name is referenced as "Harry" in several boxing references for the fights he has worked. However, Box rec, lists his name as "Harold Krause." Trying to find out which is correct? I know he's from Nevada. Would Harry be a nickname for Harold? I don't think this is the case.

Referee Question? Harold Krause or Harry Krause?
Re: Referee Question? Harold Krause or Harry Krause?
Harry is just a shortened version of the name Harold. So both are correct.
