The Ring, March 1961, reported:

Milan, Italy. THe oft- postponed middles clash between Ginacarlo Garbelli and the Hungarian veteran Laszlo Papp, finally took place at the Sports Palace where some 12,000 fans crowded in to watch the Mysterious Hungarian display his prowess. Since Papp must get the sanction of Hungarian authorities for every fight he accepts, it is always problematical whether he will arrive.

In Garbelli he clashed with a fighter built on his own lines- stocky, two- fisted and aggressive. Garbelli was not bothered by the Hungarian's south paw stance, nor fame as knockout puncher. He went right in to action from the first gong and kept up the pace until the end of the bout. The Swiss ref, Rody Seidel, declared the result a draw but Garbelli appeared to have got the edge.
