Attell forced the pace in the firsl round and sent a couple of hard left hooks to the face.

Moore came back with a few left hooks to the 'body, but they were without steam. In the second Attell played for the stomach and jaw and was all over his opponent. Moore came back in the third with lefts to the body, but made no impression on who kept up a series of cutting left jabs to the face. and head. In the fourth Attell shot a right to the jaw and Moore went down for the count.

Abe's nose -was bleeding and Moore's eyes were puffed up at the bell. Moore surprised the crowd in the seventh by opening up and putting Attell down with a right swing. He sat in the middle of the ring with his legs crossed, laughing, waiting for the count of nine, when he sprang to his feet. Infighting marked the rest of the round. In the eighth both Moore's eyes were closed and he was bleeding profusely.

The ninth was all Attell's, although Moore was game. Moore landed left and right to the head in the final round, bringing blood again from Attell's nose. This anger- ed the champion and he fought furiously for a knockout without avail. Attell, weighed. in.
