			Although Promoter Tom McCarey staged boxing shows at the Pacific Athletic Club Pavilion (also known as the Naud Junction Pavilion) for only about five years (from late 1905 to 1910), it remains a very significant venue in Los Angeles boxing history. It was where the first clearly identified World Championship bouts, were staged in the Los Angeles area. Moreover, there would also be a number of significant non-title
			bouts at the venue.

			After staging his last boxing card at Hazard's Pavilion in Los Angeles, California in late 1904, Promoter Tom McCarey was looking for a new site. Due to anti-boxing forces and the reliance on public transportation in the city, the new site had
			to be near trolley lines while not being near residential areas.

The pavilion had a capacity of 6,500, 2,500 more than Hazard's Pavilion.

			The first clearly identified World Title bout staged in Los Angeles involved heavyweights. Marvin Hart defended his newly
			won title against a short, crafty Canadian-born boxer named Tommy Burns. In a scheduled twenty-round bout that went the distance, Burns won the bout handily and received the decision.
