    ~ World-Ranked Howard Smith Unimpressive In Win Over Dan Johnson ~

    Howard Smith was lackluster and unimpressive thru the first 8-Rounds of his bout with
    hard-punching Dan Johnson of Atlanta, Georgia.

    Smith used an occasional left-jab, and a less frequent right-hand during a dull and
    uneventful 8 Rounds. Only a minor flurry in Round 4, and a hard combination in
    Round 6 was the most action dished out from the 'highly-regarded' California
    Heavyweight.

    During Rounds 7 and 8, a disinterested Smith moved back the Ropes, and let the
    strong-punching Atlanta Heavyweight hit him with left-hooks and right-hands,
    without offering a quality return punch.

    But in Round 9, a re-charged Smith came out with a 'flash-bang', and hammered a
    game Dan Johnson around the Ring. Smith poured it on, as he 'stunned' Johnson
    several times with right-hand crosses.

    With only {3 Seconds} left in the Round, Smith unloaded a vicious right-hand to the
    head, dropping Johnson to the canvas.

    As Referee - Dick Young tolled off the Count, Johnson rose and was 'saved-by-the-bell'.

    Coming out for Round 10, a 'still groggy' but game Dan Johnson hustled out to Center-Ring
    and tried to make a fight out of it.

    Johnson started winging in wide-hooks, as Howard stayed outside and used measuring
    left-jabs in an attempt to set up Johnson for a right-hand.

    The action was 'even' for the first 50-Seconds. Then Johnson attempted a wide right-hook,
    but Howard beat him to the punch and caught Johnson on the chin with a 'hard' right-cross
    at the {1:02 Mark}.

    Johnson was 'stunned'. Then Howard fired off a fast 'left-right-left', sending Johnson backwards
    to the left-side Ropes.

    With a 'stunned fighter' in front of him, Howard unleashed a tremendous overhand-right that
    landed on Johnson's head, sending him crashing to the canvas.

    Referee - Dick Young counted out Dan Johnson at 1:21 of Round 10.
