    After years of exhibition boxing tours since he had lost the World Heavyweight Title to Gene Tunney in 1927, Jack Dempsey was soundly beaten by King Levinsky in a four-round exhibition bout on this card. This is regarded as the fight that convinced Dempsey to give up hopes of a comeback to the World Title.

    Dempsey got $28,909.35, Levinsky $9,686.45.
