So often did he use these tactics that the spectators hissed him frequently, some of them calling on Referee Dan Tone to put Hicks out of ring. After the first round Denning cut loose at Hicks and lanfed hard and often on him. Hicks and Denning were substituted for Tom Kennedy and Al Benedict, the former not being able to box on account of an injured hand.
