Beau Jack in May 1943, but lost it in a rematch in November
of that year. In the days when suspensions were not automatic,
Montgomery lost via knockout to Al "Bummy" Davis
in 63 seconds. Less than a month later, he fought a rubber
match with Jack and re-won the title.
After win the title he had tough fights against Cecil Hudson,
Tony Pellone and Allie Stolz, bere losing a unification
bout to Ike Williams.
