Jim Barry beat Sandy Ferguson by TKO in round 14 of 20

• Date: 1910-10-16
• Location: West Side A.C., Gretna, Louisiana, USA
• Bout summary: [1]

Ferguson's seconds threw up the sponge. This was the first in a series of elimination bouts to find a challenger for Jack Johnson's title. During the ref's instructions at the start, Barry reportedly poked Ferguson in the gut causing the big Canuck to paste Barry in the mush with a stiff left jab. This resulted in a general brawl featuring both corners and took the intervention by police to return some order to the ring.
