"Journeyman Teddy 'Red Top' Davis of Hartford, Conn., adjusted the New England lightweight crown on his head today and confidently said he's ready for Jimmy Carter. 'Red Top' gained his claim to Carter by scoring a unanimous 10 round decision over the world champion's last title opponent, George Araujo of Providence, R.I., at Boston Garden Thursday night. Araujo couldn't launch a formidable attack after the 6th round. With points nearly even going into the 9th, Davis outboxed the champion and then outslugged him." -United Press

*Reportedly promoter Sam Silverman offered Jimmy Carter's manager an offer of $50,000 to meet Davis in Boston Garden in November with the title on the line.

Post fight comments

* "The kid (Davis) rates the title shot. It should be a lulu." -Sam Silverman

* "I lost it myself. I just couldn't get going. Yeah, he's a sharp fighter, but Carter will beat him easy." -George Araujo
