Jackson Edged by Mealey in Close Six Round Bout
Wille Jackson, who gained notice for stopping Johnny Dundee, fought a tight six round match with Philadelphia lightweight Johnny Mealey. Jackson led early, sent Mealey to the canvas for a nine count, but Mealey recovered and outpointed him. A late rally by Mealey produced the decisive blows as Jackson tired, with Mealey landing a heavy right that altered the bout.
