William Bachman lost to Joe Elliott by PTS in round 9 of 8
- Date: 1895-05-20
- Location: Riverside Athletic Club, Brooklyn, Maryland, USA
- Referee: Charlie White
Wm. Bachman, of Philadelphia, lost to Joe Elliott in a scientific exhibition, which made the ninth--an extra round--necessary, in the opinion of Referee Charles White, of New York. Bachman swung his right on Elliott's head in the second round and damaged his forearm, though he continued to use it to the end. Elliott played particularly for the body, while Bachman was trying for the jaw. Bachman won the national amateur championship in 1892.
