			"Joe Baksi saw his attempt to climb back into boxing's big time wrecked last night by a unanimous decision loss to Bob Baker, and then learned that his manager had died of a heart ailment during the bout at Eastern Parkway Arena. Baksi, aware only that his pilot had been taken 'sick', fought doggedly in the closing rounds in a bid for victory that would put him back on the road of No. 1 heavyweight contender which he once held. Baksi, in his first important bout in more than two years, marched forward and used his weight to bull Baker about the ring. Baker beat him with left jabs and hard right counter-punches to the head. In the closing rounds, Baksi was so tired that he leaned persistently on his smaller opponent." -United Press
