  • Referee: Jimmy Peerless

"Gil Turner turned the heat on Jimmy Morris at Miami Beach and found little competition in registering a TKO triumph during the 6th round of the headliner promoted by Chris Dundee. Referee Jimmy Peerless wisely halted the uneven struggle. Turner, from Philadelphia, weighed 150, compared to 150 3/4, which weakened Morris." -Ring Magazine, April, 1957 issue
