Prior to this fight, men who knew Windmill Pearce were quoted as follows in the 1940-12-3 Helena Independent: "You will not see a polished boxer in 'Windmill' Pearce. He is a slugger of the old school and he will take unlimited punishment to get his one-two over. He has met Fox before and knows that the sweet boxer from the South can carry a match along as far as he pleases. When he starts to slug it out with a man, that's the opening Pearce will be looking for. And this time he thinks he has developed the punch that will score a victory."
