Description: Intercity Golden Gloves is an amateur boxing tournament considered by many boxing aficionados as one of the three most elite Golden Gloves titles, along with the Chicago Golden Gloves and the New York Golden Gloves. The Intercity matches were designed as a series of bouts between the regional New York, Kentucky, and Chicago champions, although that was not always the case. In the finals of the Amateur Golden Gloves boxing championships, in 1958 were SV William Pickett of New York on the attack against Chicago William 'Willie' Moran. William Pickett was the victor. In the heavyweight, it was Charlie Horton and Dan Hodge. Although Horton floors Hodge early in the fight, Hodge triumphs and wins the match.
