RE this fight -- Hank Kaplan in RIng magazine said this was a TKO 10, not a decision.

Anyone wanna dig out the Vegas papers??

1982 RRB records a 10 round decision loss for Frank Kolovrat at the hands of ARG on Aug.26,1974.If any libraries in NYC have old out of state papers, I'd be happy to check.

Yup, I know that the Ring said -- but Hank said something different.

The 42d Street Library has thousands of papers -- and if they don't have it they will get it for you.

You are nominated!

i spnt 3 hours today at the 42nd st.library-they didn't have any Las Vegas papers but they ordered the Las Vegas Journal Review from 1974 for me it will arrive in 3-4 weeks,so I was told.The June 5 and 6 1972 New York Post had 2 very interesting articles about Garcia-anyone interested in his career would really enjoy reading them.Thanks for the lead, Mike,about this library.Great resources,but a rude lazy staff-a real new York experience.
