  • Date: 1957-09-10
  • Location: Madison Square Garden, Phoenix, Arizona, USA
  • "2nd ranking heavyweight contender Zora Folley of Chandler, Ariz., hampered by what his corner said was an injured right hand, Tuesday night left-jabbed his way to a unanimous 10-round decision over unranked Monroe Ratliff of Los Angeles at Phoenix Madison Square Garden. Folley, 194, apparently hurt his hand in the 3rd round against his 180-pound opponent. For the next seven rounds, Folley used his left jab as though it were a spear to keep his rival off balance." -Associated Press
