It appears he had a fight with W. Slavin

It's a bit unclear, but looks like Slavin maybe quit after the 5th round

I think he's on the system as Bill Slavin

Yeah Slavin quit after the 5th round, I think the fight was 8 jan 1888

Gorman gave up "2 stone" , it took place at Foley's Athletic Hall

Fought Mike Leary on Feb 16th at the Oakland Ring in Jersey City
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/arti ... 1900-12-24


Scheduled for 15, but only went 6 due to police intervention. The ref gave a draw.

Leary won the first three rounds, but Gorman had him battered and bloody, which lead to the stoppage, not happy with the decision
