"The end of a long left hook ended the dream of a championship and ring glory. The blow, apparently coming from the floor and landing clean to the point of Goldstein's chin, stretched Ruby on his back over the lower ring rope, where he swung to and fro for a space, his eyes gazing upward but seeing nothing. Then Ruby slipped limply off the rope to the ring floor and got to one knee as the ten-second count proceeded with the rise and fall of Referee Patsy Haley's arm. Ruby tried instinctively to get to his feet, but his faculties refused to function." New York Times, June 26, p. 11.
