Frankie Bob beat Bert Palmer by TKO in round 3 of 12
- Date: 1925-04-15
- Location: Memorial Hall, Dayton, Ohio, USA
- Referee: Glen Whitesell
Palmer knocked Bob down in the 2nd round for a nine-count. Bob rose at the count of nine, but was given a few moments to recover, as the referee did not allow Palmer to immediately go after him. Palmer knocked Bob down in the 3rd round for a second time. However, Bob was not hurt after this knockdown, and Palmer recklessly went in for the finish, and was caught by a right uppercut, that put him down for a nine-count. Palmer rose unsteady, and after Bob attacked his body, he was floored for a second time with his head hitting the canvas. Palmer somehow rose out on his feet, but before Bob could finish him, Palmer's corner threw in the towel.
