  • Date: 1974-11-22
  • Location: Coliseum, San Diego, California, USA
  • "Cowboy Jimmy Heair, 136, still feuding with his manager Jerry Moore, took his frustrations out on former state champion Juan Collado, 134, Mexico City via Santo Domingo, stopping the veteran campaigner at 2:25 of the 8th stanza. Heair, Houston, Mississippi, completely dominated the affair, dropping Collado on three occasions before a fourth time proved the clincher." -International Boxing, April 1975 issue

    • Earlier in the day, Heair met with a legal team hoping to find a way to break his three year contract with Moore. Heair also would not permit Moore from working his corner during the bout.
