Overlin needled Baer while they were being presented to 5.700 fans in ring ceremonies preceding a main event fight be tween Ralph Helms of Salt Lake City and Julio Serna of Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. As Baer and former light heavyweight champion S 1 a p sy Maxie Rosenbloom prepared to leave the ring, Overlin remarked that he thought he could knock Baer'g "head off." "Why don't you try it?" Baer retorted. A few minutes later Baer and Overlin spotted each other in the lobby, but officers separated them before a punch could be thrown. The lobby incident caused more commotion than Serna's surprise technical knockout 'Vic tory over the popular Helms in the sixth round of their sched uled 10-rounder.
