"After a pair of impressive knockouts in his last two starts at home, Mike DeJohn of Syracuse, NY, had to rally in the final for a 10 round decision against Welshman Dick Richardson last night. DeJohn, jeered and booed as he stood in mid-ring, after the fight, bleeding from cuts over both eyes and on the forehead, was heavily favoured over Richardson. It was mostly a contest of clinches and there were no knockdowns, but Richardson opened up a cut over DeJohn's left eye in the 5th and jolted him with four hard rights that made the New Yorker hang on in the 8th. While the sellout Wembley Stadium crowd voiced their objection to the decision by British referee Bill Williams, the sole judge, Richardson was a picture of dejection." -Associated Press

*Unofficial AP scorecard - 5-4-1 DeJohn
*A companion 10 rounder on this card pitted Nino Valdes against Brian London.
