Mickey Walker 144 lbs lost to Pete Latzo 146 lbs by UD in round 10 of 10

World Welterweight Title

  • "Latzo won decisively simple because he ws a better boxer than Walker. He stood up under the terific body punishment the champion inflicted and despite this attack was able to come back with a counter-offensive tht invariably swept Walker before it and not infrequently had the defending champion stung and staggering." Both judges awarded the fight to Latzo while the referee, who was therefore not required under Pennsylvania law, called it a draw. James P. Dawson, New York Times
  • Both judges voted for Latzo and Referee did not vote.
