Notes

Greb won the newspaper decision. (Sandusky Register) The Pittsburgh Post said that Greb made an uncharacteristic slow start and the first three rounds were even. In the 4th, Brown roughed up Harry inside and on the ropes that they both fell out of the ring. That riled Harry and he went to work and gave Brown a beating in the remaining rounds. His right uppercut found Brown's jaw time and again. He drove George "around the ring with sledgehammer blows."
