Carnera rose at two, but was pummeled until he became entangled in the ropes. After Carnera was untangled from the ropes by the referee, he was pummeled again by Haynes until the bell. Haynes battered Carnera again in the 3rd round, and eventually Carnera turned his back to Haynes, prompting referee Adgie to intervene.
