Gardner vs Carter Sets San Francisco Clash for Middleweight Title
George Gardner, holder of the middleweight crown since Jack Moffat broke his arm, seeks fights after difficulties with Jack Root. He has arranged a bout with Kid Carter in San Francisco later this month. Carter weighs more than Gardner, but few opponents remain in Gardner’s division. Moffat’s retirement narrows options, pushing Gardner toward light heavyweights if no other middleweight tests arise. If Gardner beats Carter, he could surprise in the year. He would be giving away weight and lacks a true rival locally.
