	"Wesley Ramey was the uncrowned king of the lightweights today, after the decisive whipping he administered last night to Tony Canzoneri, lightweight champion of the world. Canzoneri was hampered through the last six rounds by a cut which Ramey opened over his left eye, and a gash in his eyelid. Blood running into his eyes bothered the champion seriously. Ramey came out of the fight with nothing more serious than a bloody nose. Ramey took a good lead in the first, but ran into a severe left hook that dampened his ardor for awhile. The champion's eye was cut in the 5th. after that he began to fight savagely, and desperately, but he was unable to do any serious damage to Ramey. He succeeded in taking only the 8th round out of the last six. The decision of referee Elmer 'Slim' McClelland was received by the crowd of 5,500 spectators without a dissenting voice." -International News Service		"Wesley Ramey was the uncrowned king of the lightweights today, after the decisive whipping he administered last night to Tony Canzoneri, lightweight champion of the world.
