SARK ON HAS AN EASY VICTORY. A stirring return fight between J. Leckie (New Zealand) and Sarron (America) saw the latter avenge a former points defeat by knocking out the New Zealander in the 13th round. Sarron had the best of the bout all through, only Leckie’s wonderful grit staving off the end so long. DELANEY DEFEATS CONNORS.
