Louis Beats Brescia In Two Minutes Of Third Round
Joe Louis defeated Jorge Brescia by knockout in 2 minutes 12 seconds of the third round at a New York arena. Brescia, an Argentine challenger, fought bravely, landing moments of offense but could not withstand Louis's lethal left hook and right blows as the champion broke through in the final sequence. Receipts were about 35,000 dollars, reflecting limited seating and high price tiers. Brescia showed resilience but failed to threaten the champion after early exchanges.

He notes the club accelerates rapidly, requiring less power from the player, who should stay slightly behind the club and let it lead. The method contrasts with leading the club, which misaligns the swing and the ball.
