Ad Wolgast-Frankie Burns
"With blood streaming from his nose, his lips split, both eyes nearly closed and his ear ripped, Burns covered his battered face with his forearms and reeling blindly about the ring tried vainly to clinch. Wolgast landed almost at will, but Burns� crouch, assumed more from habit than intention, protected the vital spots.
As Burns staggered to his corner, the arena rang with shouts to Referee Welch to stop the bout. Burns� seconds worked desperately over him in the minute�s rest, but their task was hopeless. At the call of time one of the seconds tossed a towel into the ring and Frankie Burns� championship aspirations were dead."
