Johnny Shkor 220 lbs beat Tami Mauriello 200 lbs by TKO in round 7 of 10

• Date: 1947-03-14
• Location: Arena, Boston, Massachusetts, USA

A "wild protest brought police and spectators into the ring. Though battered and bloody, Mauriello refused to accept the order of the physicians to stop the fight." Police also had to prevent a fracas between Shkor's manager, Johnny Buckley, and Mauriello's manager, Lou Shiro. ACME report.

Mauriello was not in favor of stopping the bout and protested vigorously. He took a punch at one of the principals and was suspended for thus doing. It mattered little because Tami, badly cut about the face wich required 20 stiches, had to wait many weeks to be in battle condition.
