ADDENDUM: Although the PSA holder states that this is a full ticket, there is, in fact, a missing stub on the left side of the ticket as these were originally issued with a perforated stub on both sides of the ticket. We have updated the listing title to reflect that this is a stub and not a full ticket.
PSA EX 5 Ticket stub to the World Heavyweight Championship Fight between Champion Jack Johnson and challenger Jim "The Fighting Fireman" Flynn held in Las Vegas, New Mexico on July 4, 1912. Johnson had not stepped into the ring since defeating Jeffries exactly two years earlier, yet still had enough to dominate the fight with the overmatched Flynn. By the 6th round, Flynn was cut on the face and developed a new strategy, trying to headbutt Johnson on the chin. Despite several warnings by the referee, Flynn continued to headbutt Johnson. By the 9th round, the local sheriff had seen enough. He stepped into the ring and stopped the fight. Johnson was awarded a TKO. The ticket remains in excellent condition with little to no wear and vibrant coloring. Although, this is not a full ticket, it is graded as such by PSA. Please refer to the addendum for details.
