"Donato Paduano, Canadian welterweight champion from Montreal, was given some of his own medicine Monday night and went down to his first defeat in 23 fights, losing a unanimous 10 round decision to lightweight champion Ken Buchanan of Scotland in a non-title fight at MSG. Buchanan showed even more speed than Paduano Monday night and also eluded the fast Montrealer with lightning footwork and amazing bobbing and weaving on his way to a lopsided decision." -Canadian Press

- This bout was the semi-final to the Muhammad Ali - Oscar Bonavena main event.
