MORAN's DECISION
OVER MAT BALDWIN
Englishman Got Better of Bout
With Charleston, Mass, Fighter.
No Question of Decision.

BOSTON, Feb. 9.-Owen Moran, of
England, won the decision from Mat
ty Baldwin, OF Charlestown, Mass,
in the main bout of twelve rounds at
the Armory Athlete Association Tues
day night before crowded house.
Moran won without the shadow of a
doubt. He not only was more skiilful
and more clever. but he also punched
better than the local boy.
Moran was in the very best of con-
dition and a much improved boy over
two weeks ago, when he lost to Bald
win. Matty was just as good as then.
although he did not fight with the
judgment he should have displayed.
Matty slapped too much. When he
had a chance to sail in there was
power and vigor behind the blows,
but they went really for naught. be-
cause he didn't close his hands when
delivering the blow. On the other
hand, Moran never lost a point. He
never wasted blow. Baldwin's good
blows could be counted easily. while
Moran scored frequently and often in
every round.
