#OnThisDay in 1906 Joe Gans defeated Battling Nelson via 42nd round disqualification in Goldfield, Nevada. Nelson – a notorious rule breaker – struck with yet another low blow during a clinch after wildly throwing punch after punch in an effort to win. Gans was the victor via disqualification, but Nelson would get his revenge, knocking out Gans twice in 1908 #boxing #BoxingNews #BoxingHistory #JoeGans #BattlingNelson (at Goldfield, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnQn8GGhGTz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=msoyy6wwlw4p
