	Collins ~~knocked Miceli down~~ in the ~~2nd~~ round with ~~a right hand~~, ~~for~~ a ~~four-count~~. Collins dropped Miceli in his own corner in the ~~3rd~~ round, and the bout ~~was stopped~~.		Joe Miceli, not even a shadow of his former self, reached the end of the fistic trail last night at Moose Hall when Trenton middleweight Mel Collins won on a TKO after 2:45 had elapsed in the third round. The New York City veteran, with over 90 ring battles behind him, couldn’t even defend himself from the onrushing Collins and failed to land a solid blow. A left and right combination by Collins dropped Miceli in his own corner and Referee Paul Cavalier stepped in and stopped the one-sided affair. Collins continually beat Miceli to the punch in the opening round and in the second a hard right hand to the chin sent Miceli to the canvas. The count reached four when the bell rang. Miceli, 31, weighed in at 154, and Collins, 26, scaled 157 ¾. It was a sad ending of a thirteen-year career for Miceli that included wins over such well known ring men such as Johnny Saxton, Jay Fullmer, Art Aragon, Wallace (Bud) Smith, Pierre Langlois, Bobby Dykes and Virgil Akins. While the knockout of Miceli will look good in the record book for Collins, the New Yorker appeared so ring worn and flabby that there was little prestige that could be gained by the Trenton youngster in the bout.
