+Harold Johnson, the No. 1 light heavyweight contender, entered his fight against Julio Mederos as a 2-1 betting favorite. Shortly before the bout, the odds favoring Johnson had been 4-1. Five months earlier, Johnson had defeated Mederos by a ten-round unanimous decision.

+Johnson stumbled entering the ring, but it was thought he tripped over a rope. He danced around in the first round, hitting Mederos with a sharp left jab. Mederosa caught him with a solid right to the chin just before the bell, and Johnson staggered to his corner. In the second round, Johnson continued to jab and move until he suddenly fell to his knees without being hit. When he regained his feet, Mederosa moved in for the finish but didn't appear to land any damaging punches. At the end of the round, Johnson staggered to his corner and had trouble finding the stool. Shortly after sitting down, he collapsed onto the canvas. Johnson was carried from the ring on a stretcher.
