Round 40 of the Wolgast-Nelson fight: "Wolgast punched away, looking for an opening for a knockout blow. He smashed the beaten champion on the jaw with a right, putting all his remaining strenght in the blow. Nelson tottered and was on the point of collapse, when Referee Eddie Welsh stopped the fight and gave the verdict to Wolgast. Nelson tried to shake the hand of his conqueror, but was so weak that he was quickly dragged to his corner."
