Ring Digest January 1953

REG MACK (12.73/4) defeated Ken Brady (13.3) by a T.K.O in the sixth round at the Melbourne Stadium.

The fight was stopped at the request of Ambrose Palmer, Brady’s trainer, who was concerned over Brady’s eyes, both of which were cut.

Mack, who was having his first fight for 11 months, was far more the experienced boxer.

He was too well equipped in ringcraft for the young ex-Englishman, whose boxing career started only this year.

From the start of the first round Mack prepared Brady with both hands, outboxing and outmanoeuvring him.

Brady, although 9 ¼ lb. Heavier, and a 3 to 1 on favourite at the start, still has much to learn.

Mack gave one of his best performances, and if he fights in the same form as he did last night, he should win many more bouts in the future.
