Burns was far ahead up to the; eleventh round, but Uren was gradually overtaking- the .lead m the next hii lt'- dozen. Burns was away again m the 18th round. He sent Uren to his knees with a heavy right cross early m the nineteenth round, and Tommy appeared to be listening- to the count and started to rise at "nine," but both the goiig and the referee beat his intention. Tommy demanded a return^ match and will get it. Ho was the' most surprised man m Australia and thought lie had a soft thing on.
