Tod Morgan 129 lbs beat Joe Glick 129 lbs by DQ at 2:09 in round 14 of 15

  • Date: 1927-12-16
  • Location: Madison Square Garden, New York, New York, USA
  • Referee: Eddie Forbes

Morgan sank to the floor three times under punches to the body, on which his claims of foul were disallowed. He went down for a count of nine in the second round, and was down twice in the fifth, once for a count of nine and on the second occasion the bell rang. In the 14th round, he again sank to the canvas out of an exchange in mid-ring from a left aimed at the body but which was clear to Referee Forbes to have landed palpably low. Forbes didn't even start a count; he motioned Glick to his corner and signaled Morgan's seconds to come in and carry the injured champion to his corner, disqualifying Glick after the round had gone two minutes and nine seconds. The decision was popular with the crowd.
