"Bobby Cassidy of Levittown, NY, used a consistently sharp series of jabs to win a split decision over Don Fullmer Monday night in the 10 round light heavyweight feature bout at MSG's Felt Forum. Cassidy, 27, bloodied Fullmer's nose in the early rounds, suffered a cut over his left eye in the 9th, then retaliated in the 10th with a solid right to the jaw that staggered the 34 year old veteran from West Jordan, Utah." -Associated Press
