- Date: 1953-07-01
- Location: Chicago Stadium, Chicago, Illinois, USA
- Referee: Frank Gilmer
"Bob Satterfield, a game 180 pounder, eyed the heavyweight ranks today after a one-round knockout of the 4th best man in the dreadnought class. Chicago's Satterfield felled a foe 33 1/2 pounds heavier - favored Bob Baker of Pittsburgh - in 2:32 of a wild swinging opening round at the Chicago Stadium last night. Baker made the mistake of thinking Satterfield's jaw was as fragile as publicized. He began swarming all over his lighter foe as the close of the round neared. Suddenly, Satterfield lashed out with whistling combinations to the body and head. Baker's mouthpiece flew out. Seconds later, a ponderous Satterfield right hook to the chin stunned Baker and a sharp left finished him off." -Associated Press
