"Eddie Booker, San Francisco, sent a slightly favored Archie Moore to the deck four times in as many rounds for a TKO win in the 8th last night at Legion Stadium. Moore, San Diego, held his own until the 5th when Booker downed him for a nine count. Moore took eight in the 6th and hit the canvas just as the bell ended the 7th. He came out of an eight count in the 8th, but the bout was stopped at 2:50 when Moore appeared unable to continue." -United Press
