Bobo Akerson 145 lbs beat Billy McCluskey 135 lbs by KO in round 5 of 8

  • Date: 1969-11-13
  • Location: Roseland Ballroom, Taunton, Massachusetts, USA
  • Billy McCluskey, 135, East Boston, in no condition, suffered a knockout by Bob Ackerson, 145, Brooklyn in the fifth round. McCluskey was sharp early in the bout but lacked the staminia to hold off his strong, southpaw foe. A left to the body and one to the chin dropped McCluskey for the full count, the only knockdown in the fight. Don Hamill, The Ring, February 1970, page 52.
