Willie Pastrano vs. Brian London (2nd meeting)

London lands a right against Pastrano.

Notes

United Press International reported: "Pastrano, of Miami, Fla., was ahead on points when referee Jack Hart stopped the fight at the end of the fifth round at Harringay Arena because of a two-inch cut over the American's left eye. London had butted Pastrano in the fourth. Pastrano . . . ducked, rode with the punches and stung back with his left. But he lacked the power to deliver a decisive blow on London's big, inviting chin, and London hit his eye twice more before the fight was stopped."
Angelo Dundee, Pastrano's manager and trainer, was furious over the stoppage. "How can the referee tell whether my boy's hurt," he said. "He ain't no doctor."
