Latzo-Dundee Title Fight Set for Polo Grounds Friday
New York Ma Weiler Weights tab the heavyweights in a fresh air season opener at the Polo Grounds. Pete Latzo of Scranton defends the 147-pound title in a 15 round bout against Joe Dundee of Baltimore. Dundee supporters argue Latzo’s training may hinder him while Latzo backers expect a strong defense. Dundee had a prior first round KO loss to Edith Roberts but redeemed himself later in the West. The card also features a 10-round welterweight bout between Al Mallo and Ace Hudkins at the Queens Stadium Tuesday night.
