• Date: 1916-02-21
• Location: Grand Theater, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

"The only knockout of the night was scored by Jack Dempsey, a young and husky light-heavy, over Jack Downey, a seasoned veteran. The first round was a hummer, with honors about even. In the second Dempsey came up with a rush and carried Downey off his feet. A wicked stomach punch was the beginning of Downey's downfall. He staggered to the ropes and a hard right, flush to the jaw, finished the battle." Salt Lake Tribune
