  • Notes

    From the Toronto Globe: "With tap of the gong in the first round Greb sailed right into his towering, slow-footed opponent and earned a wide margin on points. The second round was only well under way when Benedict went to the canvas from a series of short right and left jolts,. He got up at the count of three and took another right jolt which put him down and over on his back. When he got to his feet the second time he was a beaten man. Greb circled around him deliberately and feinted him wide open for the coup de grace. On the occasion of the third dive to the mat the referee declared Greb the winner."
