This fight banned boxing in Chicago for 20 years
Terry McGovern 124 lbs beat Joe Gans 133 lbs by KO at 2:05 in round 2 of 6. Gans was knocked down once in the 1st round and six times in the 2nd round. Gans reportedly "took a dive" -- prompting the state to outlaw prize-fighting for the next 26 years. The next legal bout did not occur until July 3, 1926, although a number of "private" and "bootleg" fights would be staged in the interim.
