“While the contest was hardly a thrilling one, it was furiously fought, with most of the action being confined to close quarters. It was the Greco strategy to concentrate on Jack’s midsection, but the Beau took everything that came at him, and at the same time returned a steady two-handed fire that bedeviled Greco through the entire ten rounds.”
