Rally Wins Decision for McLarnin Over Thompson
Jimmy McLarnin earns a unanimous decision over Jack Thompson in a hard 10 round bout in Oakland. Ring craft and boxing skill, not brutal power, carried McLarnin to victory as Thompson lands a fierce two handed assault in the later rounds but falls short. Thompson forces the pace in rounds seven, eight, and nine, while McLarnin's defense and timing preserve the win and headline the title pursuit.
