  • Referee: Jack Dempsey

"Carnera had trouble reaching Ray at first and was actually outboxed by the comparatively inexperienced upstart in the opening sessions. In the 6th he succeeded in getting through Impellitiere's defence with a resounding left hook. Ray shook perceptibly and from that point Carnera was totally in control." (New York Times)
