Notes
- Very controversial decision in a bout completely dominated by reigning champion Dixon. Dixon smothered Erne and never gave the young challenger a chance to fire back. Nevertheless, the lopsided fight was ruled a draw after ten rounds. -Source: "Black Dynamite Volume III: The Three Colored Aces" By Nat Fleischer
