"'It's the second time they've robbed me here,' Mike Quarry of Orlando complained after earning no more than a draw in a 10 round light heavyweight fight with Tony Green of Miami. Quarry was ahead 47-43 on the Tuesday night card of judge Gus Jacobson. Judge Al Wilensky scored it 48-46 for Green and referee Cy Gottfried called it a draw. Green put a small cut on Quarry's left cheek early in the bout, but the fighters battled evenly throughout the fight." -Associated Press
