“Laurent Dauthuille, of France, made an impressive North American debut last night when he pounded out an unanimous 10-round decision over Pete Zaduk in the co-feature of a boxing card that drew 7,000 fans to the Forum. Dauthuille had the youthful Zaduk on the deck once in the fourth round. The Guelph boy took a right hand sock flush on the chin while moving in and dropped for the automatic eight-count.”
