Summary
Great Britain amateur boxers proved too strong for the Frenchmen at the Empire Pool Wembley and won the first match for eight years between the two countries by five contests to three. The fighting was fast and furious and the 10,000 people made no secret of their enjoyment of a grand evening’s sport.
