- Photo of Latzo on his knees after the foul. Advert.
- Latzo was far ahead when fouled.
- A couple of weeks later Latzo injured his right hand while fixing a window pane at his home. Blood poisoning soon after set in, and in time his right arm became partly paralyzed; so much so that it was rumored he would abandon the ring. It took awhile, but he eventually returned to boxing.
