Moore floored Kaminsky in the third and fifth rounds (the bell saving Kaminsky in the fifth). When the fight was over the contest was ruled a draw. When Davey’s manager Ted Ordanik learned that only one judge and the referee Tony Zale scored the fight he filed a protest. Two judges had been scheduled to work the fight and officials said they did not know what happened to the other judge. The protest was denied.
