• Location: Coliseum, San Diego, California, USA

Corbett took seven out of ten rounds, with three even, according to the San Diego Tribune. Corbett effectively tied up Alger in the clinches, while outboxing him on the outside. The San Diego Union felt that the bout was a bit closer, feeling that Alger's late rounds rally, may have entitled him to a draw, though feeling that Corbett had won a close decision.
