www.youtube.com is currently (20th of February 2008) running an excerpt of Lazslo Papp's fight against the Austrian Hugo Kohler.
Papp fought out of his usual crouch, shaking the lanky Kohler with short precise swings with both hands. Kohler often stumbled around the ring from the effect of Papp's blows, ending with his back against the ropes. However he always came back with counter attacks, throwing long wild right swings which Papp avoided. When caught in the ropes, Papp elegantly sidestepped. A right half hook hit Kohler in the face and he went down on his knees for a count.
From this jumpy and fragmented excerpt, it seems like the finishing blow came when Kohler was trapped in a corner. He was counted out on his knees and elbows.
