Nino Benvenuti vs Luis Rodriguez

"Welterweight champion Emile Griffith won a "squeaker" defense victory over former welter ruler Luis Rodriguez in their electrifying third and decisive title fight. The decisive importance of Friday night's one point penalty against challenger Luis in the 3rd round was reflected in the scoring by the three ring officials at the end of the wild, roughhouse battle. Griffith was stronger in the first three rounds but he seemed to tire somewhat from the 4th through the 7th. Then, there was see-sawing until the 12th when the champion started his closing rally, which fizzled in the 15th, when two officials favored Rodriguez and one called the 15th even." -United Press International
