Hart Scores TKO Over Constance at St Nick’s Arena
21 year old Phil adelphia welterweight Hart stops Hector Constance of Trinidad in 1 49 of the seventh round at St Nicholas Arena. Referee Ray Miller ruled the stoppage after Constance was cut on the left eye, though Constance and handlers blamed Miller. Hart, a Rookie of the Year candidate, wobbled Constance with a left hook and kept the punch barrage as Constance pressed him into a neutral corner. Constance said Hart is not in the class of Gavilan or Jones, while Avirell Akins was praised for his power. Hart may miss a December 17 date at St Nick’s with Ray Robinson stablemate Gene Johns.
