New Jersey teenager Patrick Edward Comiskey, an 18 year old Paterson prodigy, fights Marty Lieberman of Newark in a four rounder at Madison Square Garden. The bout sits beside a trio of 10 round heavyweights and draws special boxing commission permission. Comiskey has seven straight first round knockouts and is hailed as New Yorks hottest novice heavyweight. promoter Mike Jacobs hopes he could earn as much as 2500 dollars before any potential six rounder in 1940. Joe Louis watched Comiskey at his Garden debut and called his punch impressive though he warned he has more to learn.
