Incorrect Result for Clifford Schlereth vs. Tony Soldano, 3-12-1930

Post by marcianofan »

Please update the database to reflect a points win rather than a points loss for Clifford "Buddy" Schlereth. I'm guessing the headline saying he "almost won despite a hand injury" was the source of the confusion. However, the intent was I think that he was expected to win by knockout and fell short of expecations in winning a controversial decision, instead.

This is made more clear from another version of the story:

The second article can also be used to add the referee's name to the record.

Let me know if you need a pdf or jpg version instead of a link.

Here's Cliff's profile: https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/217456



Here's a card from 1926 where a young Cliff beat Lou Terry. I'm not sure if you've already got other fights from the card in the database or not.
