    • Cleroux and Gray had previously met in August 1959. Cleroux won that fight by KO in the second round.
    • Gray down twice in round 2.
    • A short right hand to the head dropped Gray to the canvas in round 3. He got to his knees midway through the count, but collapsed to the floor as the referee counted him out.
