Wallace Bud Smith vs Joe Brown 

---

"Joe Brown from New Orleans, used a vicious right, a strong left and a sharp defense Wednesday night in scoring a popular decision over lightweight champion Wallace (Bud) Smith in a nationally televised 10 rounder. Smith, losing his third straight overweight fight, received a cut lip and a swollen left eye. Smith had no comment about a title rematch but broke into tears of disgust after reaching his dressing room." -Associated Press
