"Maxie Shapiro, veteran East Side lightweight, came back from a 1st round knockdown last night at the Eastern Parkway Arena to score a 10 round upset over Charley Riley. Shapiro weathered the 1st round slugging of Riley and then held him off in the closing rounds to gain a split decision. Riley, top NBA featherweight contender, came on strong at the finish but a low blow cost him a round." -International News Service
