  • Date: 1964-12-11
  • Location: Nidarohallen, Trondheim, Norway
  • Norwegian bantamweight Anders Haga faced the 9 year younger Belgian Joseph Horny in a 6 rounder. It was a drab fight where both men felt each other out with left jabs. The Belgian seemed to have too much respect for his older opponent. He gained confidence in the last round and threw some uppercuts, but it was too late to catch up with the Norwegian's points lead. Haga didn't look his old self and admitted afterwards that he had entered the ring too early after a hand injury. He just didn't want to let down the promotor.
