Corbett had just opened a five-inch gash over Lesnevich's left eye. In the first round, Corbett opened a smaller but almost as nasty a wound over his opponent's right eye. "He butted me," cried Lesnevich as the second wound gushed open. "No, no, lad, it was a clean blow," said..."

Their stance was that a semi-pro boxer who competes for money but is not licensed as a professional boxer is not considered a professional boxer. Willie was receiving $7.00 per four rounds as a semi-pro and $10.00 as a pro. Semi-Pro: 17-1-2 (KO 9/KO by 0) Pro: 30-19-3 (KO 15/KO by 7)"

One of the Akron young men who attended the fight said: "McCoy and Steffers were sparring on the side of the ring, when McCoy foolishly left his guard open. Steffers hit him a blow nearly on the point of the chin. McCoy went to the floor and was motionless until counted out. In 10 minutes after the fight he was all right again. McCoy seemed..." current

Before he was victimized by a solid right cross to his inviting chin, Welch indicated that he would provide a busy ten rounds for Neal. He had a big edge in reach and, apparently, in boxing ability. Neither asset did him any good, of course, once he went down. He had to be h..." current

The Washington middleweight did it again last night when he upset here-to-fore unbeaten Willie Troy, Washington. Mims left no doubt about the verdict. He knocked out the lanky Troy with a sharp right to the chin at 2:59 of the eighth round. Troy had been a 7-to-5 favorite to win his 20th straight fight. From now on, Mims may find it tougher than ever to get fights. Ever since he beat Johnny Bra..." current

Mims scored with two left hooks to the head and rocked him with a right cross to the jaw. Byers reeled as Mims pumped home two left hooks to the head, and a right hook to the chin floored him.

These two local middleweights ended their rivalry last night at Turner's Arena, with Mims taking the nine-round fight. His slugging toward the end proved superior to Edward's boxing skill. It was their fourth meeting. Edwards won the first, the second was a draw, and Mims won the third. Last night's battle was a s hot as their previous ones. [Evening Star, March 1, 1949, page 17]"
