- Date: 1971-06-28
- Location: Felt Forum, New York, New York, USA
- Referee: Johnny LoBianco
"Rodrigo Valdes, a newcomer from Columbia, made a good impression as he scored a one-sided victory over Edmundo Leite, from Sao Paulo, Brazil, in the final summer show at the Felt Forum. Referee Johnny LoBianco refused to permit Leite to come out for the 4th round because of a badly lacerated right eye. Valdes mastered the quarrel from the opening bell and looked quite the athlete as he scored in every round. The eye cut was suffered in the 3rd round and Dr. A. Harry Kleinman looked in at the end of the session. When the 4th ended, the referee immediately called off the fracas." -Ring Magazine, October 1971 issue
