"Jack Dillon, of Indianapolis, and Battling Levinsky, of New York, fought eight rounds to a draw. Both men boxed cleverly and neither was severely punished. Dillon forced the fighting in the early stages of the bout and knocked his opponent through the ropes in the second round, but Levinsky came back strong toward the end of the fight and assumed the aggressive."
