  • A "slashing bout" with "scarcely a dull moment." Loughran was down in the sixth and eighth rounds but "staged a comeback in the ninth and tenth and was shooting punches from every angle at the final bell." One judge voted for each fighter and the referee then called it a draw. This decision was changed the following day by the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission when the referee found that he had miscounted his card. He gave the decision to Loughran 4-3, with three rounds even. New York Times
