Reportedly, two freak accidents happened that day: Fitzsimmons hit the bag so hard that it broke, and then his opponent of that day allegedly slipped, getting hit in the head and the boxing exhibition was cancelled.
Údajně se ten den staly dvě podivné nehody: Fitzsimmons udeřil do pytle tak tvrdě, že se rozbil, a pak jeho soupeř toho dne po úderu do hlavy údajně uklouzl a exhibice byla zrušena.
