SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 9. -- Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion of the world, will box Ad Wolgast, from whom he won the title, in a ten-round bout at Milwaukee some time next month. The weight is to be 135 pounds. Ritchie sent word to-day that the financial terms were satisfactory. As there is to be no referee's decision the title will be jeopardized only by the possibility of a knockout. (Feb 10, 1914) Here is article about Ritchie and the first match between them, (Nov 28, 1912) apparently Wolgast landed some punches "below the belt". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willie_Ritchie here is bit about Wolgast cyberboxingzone.com/boxing/wolgast.htm

That's "Ad" Wolgast, "Ad" short for Adolph. He became lightweight boxing champion of the world in 1910: www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,861392,00.html See more Wolgast pics here: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2449486430/ www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2536796784/
