Pal Shoaf beat Young Nino by PTS in round 8 of 8

  • Date: 1927-12-30
  • Location: Arcadia Hall, Phoenix, Arizona, USA
  • Referee: Charlie Barker

This was an unpopular decision, with many feeling that Nino deserved to win. Nino attempted to shake Shoaf's hand after the bout, and after a misunderstanding, the two began fighting again until police intervened.

The Phoenix Boxing Commission voted to suspend referee Charlie Barker a minimum of 90 days after this bout.
