DECISION DESCRIBED AS INCREDIBLE.

Miami, Feb. 27.

In the fifteen round contest for the world's heavyweight championship Jack Sharkey (America), defeated Phil Scott (England), on a technical knock-out in the third round.

It was an incredible decision. The refer, after all the controversy limiting his powers, actually con- aulted with the officials before decid Johnson, Scott's manager, together with other persons, states that the roteren Arst of all disqualified Sharkey. As the latter began to cry and protest the referee then reversed his decision. The referee denies this, however,

When a Reuter representative went into Scott's dressing room, Scott moaned and shricked as a masseur attempted to move the right thigh; where a bruise was clearly visible and also a slight lacoration. Yet the doc tor insisted that there was no foul

What the Boxers Say. When the fight ended both boxers were hissed and booed by the crowd. Scott was carried from the ring by three policemen.

"No, I never fouled that cry baby. He just quit," said Sharkey,

my life. was hit at least six fouls," said Scott

It is significant that Sharkey was warned for hitting low in the third round just before the knock-out..

Sharkey's aggression won him both the completed rounds. He had Scott down fur counts of three and six in the second and for three and six again

in the third.

Scolt Down Four Times.

A right swing by Sharkey sent Scott down in the second round and he was on the boards again from successive left, right and left blows for the count of six. In the third round, a tremendous left put him down the first time, and a right to the stomach floured him a little later, It was this blow which is the one in question,

Both boxers missed frequently. Throughout, Scott boxed finely, block. ing ducking and landing several times with his right. He also landed one tremendous left, but it did not appear to hurt Sharkey very much.

The end came after two minutes and thirty-four seconds in the third

round.

In the preliminary bouts, Campolo and Risko fought for ten rounds, the result being announced as a draw. It was an unsatisfactory result, the crowd thinking that Bisko won. Rauter's American Service.

"Every Dirty Trick."

Miami, Feb. 29. Trevor Wignall, the Daily Express Miami correspondent, says it was the foulest fight he has seen. Sharkey used every dirty trick invented, from butting and low hitting, to the use of the knee. It was a disgrace to boxing.

Green put up a really great fight,'" and it appeared at one time that he was going to run his opponent to fours sets. His placing down the tram lines" was particularly accurate, but he could have afford- ed to drop some of his drives, & little shorter. Once or twice, though, he brought off a fine winner with a half-court cross shot, and it was only his inability to force home an advantage that prevented him. from taking a set.

EF Fincher, and Luk Ding- cheung engaged in a long, duel,-{ which went to the full five sets, be- fore the latter secured the verdict. Luk merited his success by the. clever manner in which he forced the exchanges in his favour at the critical time, but otherwise there was little to choose between the players. Both made great use of chop strokes, but Luk was certain- ly more effective at the net.
