Nova Qualifies For September Heavyweight Title Bout
Victor over Max Baer by technical knockout in the 11th round at Yankee Stadium confirms Lou Nova of California as the likely challenger for the heavyweight crown. The 24 year old former college standout, in his 27th pro bout, dominated Baer as blood flowed from Baer's badly lacerated cuts, the referee stopping the bout at 1:21 of the 11th. Nova sustains a hurt left ear while Baer, bleeding since the third round, foresees future battles. Nova’s camp weighs facing Joe Louis or Tony Galento in September or next summer.
