- Date: 1902-12-23
- Location: Reliance A.C., Oakland, California, USA
- Referee: Eddie Smith
Referee Smith disallowed claims of a foul with Neil hanging limp on the ropes, saying no foul blow had been delivered. Referee Smith then said, "Forbes wins!" and left the ring. There was no count and no gong to signify the end of the round. An unsatisfactory finish.
