It was a dull contest, consisting mostly of clinching. Affinito was down twice in the ninth.
Affinito regained his feet after Henneberry was declared the winner, but he collapsed and was taken to his dressing room and later taken to hospital, where he regained consciousness early this morning. His condition is now stated to be satisfactory.
