"Tough Tony DeMarco, fighting for his fistic life, solved Gaspar Ortega's style in his 3rd attempt and pounded out a one-sided 10 round decision over the rugged Mexican tonight at the Boston Garden. DeMarco, upset by Ortega twice last year, combined some neat boxing and powerful punches to earn the votes of the three officials by a wide margin in a furious slugfest. DeMarco concentrated on Ortega's body at the outset, moving to the head when he would find an opening." -Associated Press
