• Date: 1954-03-01
• Location: Mechanics Building, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
• Referee: Tommy Rawson

"Lightweight contender George Araujo of Providence, R.I., at 139 1/4, the heaviest of his career, hammered out a 6th round TKO over outclassed Curley Monroe, 137 1/4, of Worcester, tonight in a scheduled 10 rounder. Araujo - campaigning for another title fight with lightweight king Jimmy Carter, who whipped him in a championship match last year - started slowly, but then banged Monroe at will. Referee Tommy Rawson stepped in and halted the bout at 2:31 of the 6th round as Monroe reeled helplessly against the ropes with cuts over both eyes and blood pouring from his nose." -Associated Press
