Hans Jorgen Jacobsen beat Benito Confin by PTS in round 4 of 4
- Date: 1967-02-02
- Location: K.B. Hallen, Copenhagen, Denmark
Novice heavyweight Hans Jorgen Jacobsen of Denmark outpointed the Italian Benito Confin over 4 rounds.
This rematch was not a good one. Jacobsen looked stiff and scared, perhaps fearing the right swing from Confin which had knocked him ou in their first meeting in Sweden two months ago.
Confin threw swings again, Jacobsen jabbed. It didn't lead to anything. Often the two 97 kg men collided and wrestled.
Jacobsen told to the press that he had felt good for most of the afternoon, but in his corner waiting for the first bell, he almost had a fit of anxiety and became paralyzed.
