Cooper Floors Davis In First Round Upset
British heavyweight Henry Cooper crushed Jefferson Davis of Mobile with a left hook in 1 minute 40 seconds of a scheduled 10-round bout. The win, though brisk, likely won’t advance Cooper toward Cassius Clay’s world title due to Clay’s focus on a possible U.S. military call. Davis was hurt early and knocked out as Cooper’s left hook folded him, drawing cheers from a 3,500-strong crowd.
