	McCoy is one of the very few to hold decision over [[Tommy Loughran]]. He faced the Philadelphia master twice within a month in 1935 obtaining a draw the first trip. One of the most industrious workmen, McCoy muffed a grand opportunity at Madison Square Garden late in 1935, when he unwisely whittled down to fight a middleweight only to discover that he was meeting a light-heavyweight in capable [[Jock McAvoy]]. At that he came up from an early knockdown to have the Englishman hanging on in the final heats.		McCoy is one of the very few to hold decision over [[Tommy Loughran]].
