Duane Hoag Slams
KO Over Montgomery
Duane (Buzzsaw) Hoag, a' little man who can use his fists, knocked
out Monte Montgomery in two minutes, 30 seconds of the second round
in the armory main event last nlsht for the Portland lightweight's
second two-round win over the popular Indian boy.
Montgomery had been down and taken counts of six. five and eight
during the whirlwind scrap, and had mauled Hoag around considerably
without getting the Buzzsaw off his feet. When the knockout came
Monte was rushing Hoag against the ropes.
He was hit with a right and left in the face, dropped to his knees
and rolled over. Montgomery's left a
eye was closed and his mouth bleed
Ing, and he was definitely beaten
but never gave up.
One of the smallest of armory
fight crowds saw the boxing card,
which was action -packed clear
through.
Ralph Weiser brought home the
bacon in the semiwindup. batter
ing Frankie Wade of Portland for
four rounds and finally scoring a
technical knockout over the Port
land lightweight. In the fourth
Weiser had Wade measured out and
floored him with a right and left
into the face.
Wade had taken a bad beating
without going down earlien and
when he hit the canvas this time
his .handlers tossed in a towel.
Bruce Miller took a rousing de
cision from Bob Eastman' In the
five - stanza middleweight special
event. For two rounds both boys
threw caution to the winds to rush
in and slug, without much visible
headway, and in the third and
fourth Miller began slapping left
jabs into Eastman's face.
Eastman, a natural lefthander,
switched over to lead with his right
in the final round and nullified
Miller's left jabs, but it was too
late. Miller already had the points.
Both the opening bouts went the
distance. Darrell Harrington, welter
weight, gets better every fight and
last night he took a unanimous de
cision from Rod Bonis of Ashland
in four rounds of close battling.
There were no knockdowns.
