Jack Johnson & Jim Flynn fought for the heavyweight championship on July 4, 1912 in Las Vegas, NV. Some, apparently, were not ready for desegregated boxing: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9F05EFDE113AE633A... Some even thought it might mean the boxing itself: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9A06E0D91231E233A...

The Jack Johnson vs. Jim Flynn contest (on July 4, 1912) was fought in Las Vegas, NEW MEXICO -- not NV. Advertised to last for 45 rounds, it was stopped by the New Mexico state police after only nine. Flynn was outclassed and kept trying to cheat; Johnson was declared the winner. Here is the New York Times report: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9806E...
