all and kept placing lefts to the stom-
ach and ribs in nearly every round.
The jabs to the hody evidently hurt
McGoorty. outside of these Hicks only
reached the head or face few times
in the bout.
There was little or no in n-fighting, all
of the work being done at long range
with McGoorty landing four punches
to the other mans one. 1t was a rath-
er tame fight. The men weighed 163
pounds each.
