Famechon Beats Legra to Capture Feather Crown in London
Australian Johnny Famechon upset Jose Legra 15 rounds to win the world featherweight title at Royal Albert Hall. The 23 year old, weighing 125 pounds six ounces, endured slips and knockdowns but fought back behind left jabs and body work to prevail 74-12 on the referee’s card and 73-14 on Ups score. Famechon, born in Paris, improved to 48 wins with six losses as Legra, Cuban-born Spaniard, led early with Cassius Clay style showmanship but failed to sustain offense.
