"Georgie Abrams, 160 1/4, of Washington D.C., won a close decision over Steve Belloise, 159 1/2, New York, in the 10 round main event at MSG last night. It was a bruising, mauling battle all the way, with the veteran Abrams being the aggressor most of the way as the stiffer-punching Belloise stalked and sought vainly to land a lethal wallop. Abrams took the play away from his rangy opponent from the opening bell and set a fast pace. He appeared to sag midway through the bout but came back strongly in the closing rounds, outslugging Belloise in a bitter exchange in the 9th, the best round of the fight from an action standpoint. There were no knockdowns." -Associated Press
