"Middleweights Ted Wright, 153 1/2, of Detroit and Yama Bahama, 156, of Bimini, BWI, fought a lack-lustre draw Monday night in their 10-round locally televised bout at the St. Nicholas Arena. The crowd obviously was displeased by the verdict and indicated by its reaction that it thought Bahama deserved the decision for his fast finish in the 8th, 9th and 10th rounds. There were no knockdowns and no blood and the crowd did not warm up to the bout until the final three rounds." -United Press International
