10.—The gameness of Oliver astonished the oldest amateur; and he now so far recovered himself as to have the best of it, and fibbed his opponent down at the ropes. (Great applause.) 11.—Oliver kept the lead, and not only gave a staggering hit to Neat, but caught him again as he was falling. 12.—Oliver in this round was everything. His science in getting away was excellent: he gave his opponent a severe facer, a blow on the eye, and finally floored him, Neat frequently hitting short. (“Bravo, Oliver!” and the odds rising rapidly.) 13.—Neat gave Oliver, in following him, a tremendous right-handed hit on his mouth, so that his upper works were in a complete state of chaos. Neat, notwithstanding this superiority, went down, and it was loudly asserted without a blow. It occasioned marks of disapprobation. (£100 to £5 was offered on Oliver, but no one took it.) 14.—Oliver, after having the best of the round, threw Neat. 15.—Neat hit down, and Oliver fell upon him. 16.—Oliver planted a severe blow under the left ear of his opponent, who went down much distressed. 17.—Oliver made a hit, but Neat stopped it with much dexterity; counter hits, yet Neat was floored. 18.—Neat made three blows, but went down. 19.—Oliver floored his opponent, but was, nevertheless, punished in the round. 20.—Neat’s right hand was at work, and Oliver quickly followed him up till he went down. 21.—Oliver floored his antagonist, and fell upon him, and hit Neat in the face as he was in the act of falling upon him. (This produced “Foul, foul,” from the friends of Neat.) 22.—Oliver received a hit from Neat, when the latter fell. (Hissing.) 23.—Oliver, in closing, fell upon his opponent. 24.—Neat planted some sharp blows; but Oliver had the best of the round, when Neat went down. (“Bravo, Oliver! well done, Tom!” and the betting greatly in his favour.) 25.—Neat, it appeared, now felt the use of his right arm, and with two blows, right and left-handed, not only sent Oliver staggering away, but hit him down like a shot. (The hats were again thrown up, and the odds had all vanished.) 26.—It was evident Oliver could not recover from the severe effects of the last round. (“Time” was again loudly vociferated; and he came up staggering, only to be hit down.) 27.—Neat again went to work, and planted more tremendous blows; but, in closing, Neat was undermost.
