Fletcher's Heavyweight Hope Falls to Rabbit Turnbow

Jimmy Fletcher, a seated heavyweight with a brief pro record, was knocked out in the fourth round by Mel Turnbow of Cincinnati at Olympic Auditorium. Turnbow, 234 pounds, pressured Fletcher with a left hook and right hand, then dropped him for the count at 1:01 of the fourth. Earlier rounds showed Fletcher using sharp jabs and a roundhouse right while Turnbow appeared tentative. In earlier bouts, Miguel Aguilar stopped Dave Ries in four, Tommy James beat Manny Duran in five, and Manny Lugo drew with Gary Carr.
