Coulon Retains Bantam Title With Knockout of Kenrick
Johnny Coulon defended his bantamweight world title by knocking out Jem Kenrick in the nineteenth round at the West Side club in New Orleans. Kenrick was groggy from jabs to the face and a swollen nose before Coulon delivered a dangerous solar plexus drive that floored him. Kenrick rose, stayed on the ropes, and was counted out as the crowd watched. Coulon has accepted a challenge from Frank Conley, with a $1,000 side bet accompanying the purse.
