Additional bouts for EBU LW champ Bob Marriott?

Post by jjcorbett »

Hi, everyone,

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Marriott lists the following bouts not recorded here:

20 Jan 1919 W Rtd 11 (sch. 15) v. Fred Blakeborough at National Sporting Club (Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer, 21 Jan 1919)

17 Feb 1919 W6 (?) DQ (holding?) v. Ted Moore at Hoxton Baths (Dundee Courier, 18 Feb 1919)*

10 Mar 1919 W PTS v. Joe Starmer at National Sporting Club (Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer, 11 Mar 1919)

* Probably the Ted Moore who lost MW title fight vs. Greb, as French LW Raymond Vittet fought both this Moore and Marriott about 8 months apart.

Can anyone with access to UK papers confirm these results? Many thanks.

Can the editors confirm these results and, if so, please update Marriott's record? Many thanks!
