Pep Is Easy Winner In Defending Feather Title
Ray Famechon failed to threaten featherweight champion Willie Pep at Madison Square Garden in a 15 round decision. The European champion missed most of his punches while Pep used footwork and counters to dominate. The New York Boxing Commission may require foreign fighters to prove themselves in small venues before big title bouts. Pep was grazed on the 11th round and threw Famechon to the canvas in the eighth. Matchmaker Al Weill discussed potential future bouts with Sandy Saddler or Famechon in June.
