	"Relegated to a place among pugilism's washed up bums when Tony Galento stopped him a few months ago, Lou Nova was back within a fight or two of a world heavyweight championship challenge today. Having disposed of Pat Comiskey on a decisive, blood-soaked decision last night. Nova was as good as he ever has been last night in cutting Comiskey to ribbons and missing a clean knockout by a matter of a round or two in their 10 round fight. Comiskey was dropped in the 1st round by a left hook for no-count, then cut about the eyes and mouth through the rest of the rounds and floored again in the 10th for a nine-count, by which time he was virtually helpless. Nova left the ring without a mark on him." -International News Service		"Relegated to a place among pugilism's washed up bums when Tony Galento stopped him a few months ago, Lou Nova was back within a fight or two of a world heavyweight championship challenge today.

			* "I'm supposed to meet Conn next if Jacobs sticks by his agreement. If I can't have Conn, then I'll take Max Baer, although I've already stopped him once, or I would accept Tony Galento who stopped me. But if agreements mean anything, I will meet Conn next." -Lou Nova
