Bobby Scanlon 135 lbs lost to Paolo Rosi 134 lbs by KO at 1:17 in round 3 of 10

  • Date: 1958-10-13
  • Location: Cow Palace, Daly City, California, USA
  • Referee: Matt Zidich

Both boxers were cut badly in an exciting 1st round. In the 2nd round, the pace slowed considerably. In the 3rd, Rosi landed a right hook that floored Scanlon. Scanlon jumped up before the referee could start a count. He charged after Rosi, who backpedaled, and caught him with a right that floored him for a no count. Scanlon then charged in for the knockout, and ran into another right hook that put him face down for the full ten count.

Rosi quote: "This boy is a sucker for a hook. Scanlon lost his mind after I knocked him down."
