"The way Jorge Ahumada solved Bobby Cassidy's southpaw style was to spend round one studying Cassidy's methods, a step that lost him the round. It was a different story during round two. This time Ahumada came across with a right cross. The judges were impressed. Confident he had figured out Bobby's left-hand style, Jorge became more forceful in his punches and employed a left-right combo to floor Cassidy. At 2:06 of round three it was over. First there had been two punches to Cassidy's side and then one to his head. Cassidy said afterwards he heard himself being counted out when it got to number eight, but there was nothing he could do." -INTERNATIONAL BOXING, June 1974 issue

*This bout was fought on the undercard to the second Ali-Frazier fight.
*Cassidy claimed to have a verbal agreement with Bob Foster that if he won, the next title shot was his.

Post fight comment

* "There's nobody left. We were supposed to fight Len Hutchins this time, and he's the top contender, but he pulled out. We've beat everybody but him and Bob Foster." -Gil Clancy, Ahumada's manager
