It was twenty years ago tonight that
the second Of the three sensational
bouts between Frank Erne and George
Dixon was staged in New York. Dixon
was then the featherweight champion
of the world. while Erne, afterwards
lightweight champion. was rapidly at
tanning fame. and had never been de-
feated. The boys fought at 122 pounds
and, much TO the surprise OF the ma
jority of the fans. the Buffalo boy won
the decision in twenty rounds Erne
started fighting in 1894. when he was
employed in a Buffalo bowling alley.
and defeated George Siddons. the fam
Gus "An Day Fighter" In one of his
first contests. He then whipped Solly
Smith. although il was called a draw.
and knocked out Joe Leonard, Joe
Craig. and Jack Sicily twice. The
New York promoters were then scour-
ing the woods to find a boy to whip
the negro Dixon. and late in '95 Erne
was given the chance. He held Dixon
to draw in ten rounds. and in the go
battle defeated him In the third meet
ing, in the spring OF 81. Dixon turned
the tables, winning the decision In
eS-round affair.
