	Olson, known as a very good infighter, was outworked on the inside by Calhoun. Olson opted instead to sharp-shoot with his right hand from the outside against Calhoun. These tactics worked effectively for him in the 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 7th rounds. A left hook knocked Calhoun down for a five-count in the 7th round, though Calhoun's manager [[Frank Bachman]] argued that his man had slipped.
