Joe Brown vs Wallace Bud Smith III

---

"Lightweight champion Joe Brown registered his eighth straight win Wednesday night when Dr. Alexander Robbins examined ex-champ Wallace (Bud) Smith in his corner after the end of the 10th round and waved his hands to signify that the bout be stopped. Smith was bleeding from a cut inside his mouth, and he claimed he had been unable to see properly from his left eye after a blow in the 4th round. Brown did a fast-stepping weave from side to side, avoiding Bud's attempted rushes, and sharp-shooting at him with long left jabs and straight rights. Smith's legs appeared to be gone. At 27, he no longer was able to step in with his old crushers against a fast-moving opponent." -United Press
