Uzcudun was (bleeding /from the eyes and nose in the sixth, after which Camera monotonously accumulated points, brushing the blows aside almost contemptuously and rather displeasing the huge . crowd. The giant’s punches lacked a finished drive and did. not greatfy incommode Uzcudun.-
Sixty-five thousand were present at the fight which was. held <in- a grebt sunken arena at Piazza Di 'Siena. *:
Perhaps Uzcudun, who .fought courageously despite 3.} stone .and several inches disadvantage, would not have lasted out the contest had not- C- a ‘neVa broken a small bone of his right hand midway fn the fight, though he did not inform his seconds until the four-.,; tee nth round.
