Matawan, NJ, August 8, 1929, Complete Results from Previously Unreported Card

Post by DavidKehler »

Here are the results of a card held at the Freneau Arena, an outdoor facility, in Matawan, NJ, on Thursday, August 8, 1929. The card was a benefit for the Raritan Post of Keyport of the American Legion. Results from this card have not been previously reported on Boxrec.

Eddie Marks, Perth Amboy, NJ KO4 Carl Zullo, Port Reading, NJ (weights not reported) (scheduled for 8)
Willie Sandswald, New Brunswick, NJ KO5 Nick Natley, Jersey City (weights not reported) (scheduled for 8)
Oscar Bass, Long Branch, NJ W6 Andy Sorrell, Asbury Park (weights not reported)
Jimmy Donato, Red Bank, NJ KO2 Jack Kelly, Elizabeth (featherweights) (scheduled for 6)
Frankie Sharrabba, Red Bank, NJ D6 Frankie Orlando, Roselle Park, NJ (weights not reported)

Source for the results: "Long Branch Daily Record", Long Branch, NJ, August 9, 1929, page 21.

The newspaper said that Bass and Sorrell "...put on their regular 'stumblebum' show. These two alleged battlers have met at least a half dozen times in the past six months and each time waltz around to the disgust of fans."
