Pugilistic Gossip and a Providence Fight Farce
A Providence boxing sham at the Metropole Club sparked wide criticism. The supposed six round bout between O'Donnell and Godfrey was likely staged for gate receipts, with news leaks, paid promotions, and hidden plans to declare a draw if no knockouts occurred. The Post challenged the scheme, while insiders noted loyal athletes exposed to costly trips and empty promises. Godfrey upheld his efforts despite the debacle, and local ring organizers pressed ahead with upcoming weigh-in matchups and prize incentives.
