Fight:199856

Jack Reno beat Ray Teja by PTS in round 8 of 8

• Date: 1935-05-24
• Location: Granite Street Hall, Barre, Vermont, USA

Reno had Teja very tired before the end of the fight but displayed nothing heavy in the way of artillery. Teja bored into the CCC boxer in the first two rounds and landed some hard shots to the body and head. After that, Teja made the mistake of waiting for an opening and Reno started scoring with his right hand and with Teja backing away tossed in enough lefts to start Teja's nose bleeding. Reno showed no inclination to mix in the tough spots and boxed continuously, wearing Teja down and landing some heavy shots to the head in the 7th round. Teja although badly tired, crowded Reno in the final round but he had no smoke left in his gloves and the Ricker Mills boy easily took the award.
