His opponent was a Bristol man The fight lasted an hour, at the end of which time the English fighter, @o quote a local account of that day, “was so severely punished that it was impossible to distinguish a sin- gle feature in his face." Next the darkey fought Tom Blake, Rnown as ‘Tom Tough,” who was weconded by Tom Cribb, the English ghampion, and Bill Gibbons, who may have been ‘an ancestor of the fighting @ibons family. Molineaux mauled Blake for eight founds, finishing him “with a tre- fMmendous hit on the head that com- pletely took all recollection out of him,” as an English sporting writer challenge was accepted and he was matched to fight Dave Barry, Jack Madden and Jack Scales. He knocked out Barry in two rounds, Madden in four and Scales in around. McCoy was a master boxer with a punch and a mind so keen and cun- ning that he acknowledged no mental equal in the ring but Bob Fitzsim- mons.
