"Archie Moore added to his imposing string of victories last night with a 10 round TKO of Lloyd Marshall and was looking for his reward. Moore, who decisioned Marshall at Baltimore last month after being knocked down three times in the first three rounds, took the rematch handily. Battering Marshall almost at will, Moore missed several knockouts before the deciding 10th. Marshall, blood streaming from his nose, mouth and deep cuts under both eyes, kissed the canvas three times in the final round - then referee Jackie Davis stopped the fight." -Associated Press
