This day in boxing. A look back.

[Master]

This day in 1922 Harry Grab would hand Tunney his one and only professional defeat in superbly brutal fashion. Midway Tunney was leaking from busted nose, torn lip and badly gashed eye. Somewhere along the 10th the Commissioner was hear to say that it's a bad match and should have never been made. Tunney was lt heavyweight champ. They would meet 4 more times with Tunney officially winning next ( highly disputed), Tunney decision, a draw and the last meeting Tunney returned the beating in 1925.

Nearly 100 years ago amazing.

Tunney was battered by Harry with illegal blows and dirty tactics. Gene got his revenge.
