• Date: 1973-01-15
• Location: Grosvenor House Hotel, Mayfair, London, United Kingdom
• Referee: Harry Gibbs 39.75-38.75

"Richard Dunn, 217, of Bradford turned in his best win to date and the 11th in his last 12 with an 8 round verdict over Roy Williams, 223, of Philadelphia at the World Sporting Club. Williams got off to a slow start as he seemed puzzled by the steady stream of right jabs thrown his way by Dunn. He came on in the 5th and 6th round as he pressed the attack, but Dunn was too shifty for him, and kept his jabbing attack going to stay out of harm. Roy did get in some effective left-right combinations, but not many and Dunn stayed in charge of the fight by keeping it mostly at long range where his footwork and jab kept him in command." -Boxing Illustrated, April 1973 issue

• Referee Harry Gibbs, the sole judge, scored it 39 3/4 - 38 3/4 for Dunn
