When Jack Petersen knocked out Hein Muller in the first round at Cardiff, in a heavy-weight non-title bout, sixty thoufsand men and women assembled in Ninian Park, headquarters of the Cardiff City Football Club, and saw their idol Petersen win in 2.10. The end came with such suddenness that many ticket-holders had not taken their seats. Petersen struck Mullers stomach with his left, then with a right which followed in a flash. Muller went down clutching his stomach and rolled 'on his back.
