December 31, 1908 — Last night at Jeffries’ Arena, Herriman bore witness to the fight between Jack O’Keefe and debutante Muggsy Mullins; Muggsy lost and put the gloves away for good. In the feature bout, heavyweights Al Kaufman and Jim Barry were scheduled for a marathon 45 round bout, and Kaufman KOed his opponent in the 39th.
45 rounds is too much for today's fighters!!! I'm giving a 10 to 12 at the most!!!
