Cauliflower Alley Tunney Dempsey Bout In Jersey A No-Decision Clash
The proposed Tunney Dempsey heavyweight clash at Royle's Tivety Acres in Jersey is billed as a no decision affair between aging champions and a doubtful challenger. Critics recall the 1920s bout impressions and question why the fight would stage in Jersey, not New York City, with no decisions rendered. Chuck Burns returns to Madison Square Garden to meet Davey Rosenbloom in a prominent welterweight pairing as Burns pursues bigger names in the big time.
