Boxers Fulton Morris Rivalry Weighs In For World Title
Reports show Fulton and Morris have met three times with a 1914 foul defeat for Fulton, a 1915 New York bout also decided by a foul, and a Canton, Ohio finish where Morris fouled Fulton. The piece notes Avery Brundage as last year’s all round champion and Fred Thomson’s 7449 point all time record. It questions whether Willard must face Fulton if a guaranteed bout occurs.
