(Original Caption) 6/26/1923-Philadelphia, PA-Only the fact that the State of Pennsylvania does not permit decisions at the end of boxing bouts saved Mike McTigue's light heavyweight crown.The Irishman who won the title from Battling Siki in Dublin last St. Patrick's Day was outpointed all the way in his eight round battle with Tommy Loughran,a local boy.Loughran,according to the consensus of opinion among ringside experts,won all but two of the eight rounds.The two fighters are shown in a pre-fight photo.
