Grazicano Mew Champion
Zale Groggy
As Bout Ended
In 6th Round
CHICAGO, July 17 Wt Rocky
Qraxlano, tough, tousled - haired
youngster from the streets of New
York who looks Just like he had
sneaked out of an alley, reigned
today as middleweight boxing
champion of the world.
The 35-year-old Orazlano. fight
ing to redeem himself from the
stigma of suspension In New York
state, battered the 33-year-old title
holder Tony Zale to pitiful help
lessness In llie Chicago stadium last
night.
Orazlano, himself previously on
a verge of a knockout, was declared
the winner on a technical knockout
2 minutes 10 seconds after the start
of the sixth round. The finish cam
at almost the exact stage that Zal
had come from behind to knock oul
Oratlano In their first engagement
In New York last September 27.
The a v a g e 1 y-fought battle,
scheduled for IS rounds, was wit
nessed by a sweltering, howling
crowd of 18.547 which established
an all-time Indoor gate by paying
$422,918.
Zale, champion since 1SM, came
to the end of his trail with tragic
. suddenness. Dp to the end of the
fifth round, two judges and Ref
eree Johnny Behr had voted him
leading on points by a safe mar
gin for carrying the attack to the
challenger. Zale had gashed a cut
over Graxiano'i left eye. His right
ye was rapidly closing and his
nose was bleeding and cut.
In the third round Zale, who
weighed 1j to 155 for the chal
lenger, had all but finished Grail -ano.
Bleeding Rocky was badly
hurt and staggering under Zale's
punishing blows to the head and
body. A short right to the chin had
floored Graziano but he was up be
fore the count started.
In the fourth. Graziano drove a
terrific right to Zale's body a dev.
astatlng punch that started Zale to
his finish. Zale, however, coura
geously tried to carry the battle to
his. opponent but the, punishing
power of his blows was fading.
Zale started to wilt In the fifth.
His tempo slowed. He lashed but
with the pride of a falling cham
pion, but failed to hurt Graziano
and at the end of the round he was
visibly tired.
Then came the dramatic sixth
and 'finish.
Zale stin rushed to stuck and
pinned the challenger tn Tony's
own corner. As Zale moved in,
Gratiano countered with a blast
ing right to the. jaw, thrown with
all the power of his youth. Zale
reeled backwards, his hand
dropped to his side. Gratiano
knew that Zale was hurt and he
opened up In a fury of blows,
connecting solidly with a left
hook and a right to the chin.
Zale's eyes glased and he stag
gered back, groping blindly for
support. -
Once Zale stabbed with a left in
a vain attempt to halt Graziano's
charges. But Rocky swept in with
another right to the jaw, and Zale,
completely helpless, sagged under
the top strand of the ropes. Referee
. Behr pulled Rocky away. :
As the timekeeper shduted
"three," Behr pushed Graziano to
a neutral corner and ended the
light.
