  • Location: Arena, Cleveland, Ohio, USA
  • "Lee Q. Murray, South Norwalk, Conn., ran his comeback victory string to 12 last night by winning an unanimous 10 round decision over Cleveland's Jimmy Bivins. Murray, 6'4", made good use of his height, weight and reach and had little trouble hitting Bivins, who was a slow moving target compared with his early days. Bivins tried to make it a close-in scrap, but for the most part, Murray held him off with a long left while piling rights to the Cleveland lad's face and mid-section. There was nothing resembling a knockdown, but both fighters were shaken several times. Bivins bled at the nose and mouth for the last six rounds." -Associated Press
