  • Referee: Pete Tomasco

"Stanley (Kitten) Hayward scored a 2nd round TKO Friday night over Vince Shomo after referee Pete Tomasco declared Shomo helpless. Shomo was partly out of the ring under a flurry of hard rights and lefts to the head when Tomasco pushed Hayward aside and began a mandatory eight count. Hayward was motioned to continue when Shomo regained his footing. The 5th ranked Hayward again opened up with a barrage of punches and at 2:44 of the round Tomasco halted the fight. They appeared evenly matched until the last part of the opening round when Hayward staggered Shomo with a hard right and followed with repeated punches to the head." -United Press International
