Jack Sharkey beat Al Nesser by TKO in round 6 of 6
- Date: 1930-06-11
- Location: Armory, Akron, Ohio, USA
Nesser knocked Sharkey down once and threw him to the canvas eleven times in the first four rounds. Both were down in the 5th round. Nesser collapsed and fell to the floor in the 6th round, and after a few more punches went down again. At this point, his manager Suey Welch threw in the towel. Nesser who had easily dispatched his previous opponents, appeared unable to handle the longer distance, per the Akron Beacon Journal.
