"Simply put, I got caught. Earnie not only punches hard, but he is very accurate and puts
power in those fists."

"I have no excuses. He caught me in the 1st-Round, and put a hurting on me. I recovered
between Rounds, but I was still foggy. I was doing good in the middle of Round 2, and I was
coming back. I think I hurt him, and I buckled his legs with that right-hand over the top. But,
he landed a good right-hand to my ribs, and took the air out of me."

"I went to the Ropes, but I had my right-hand a bit low. Earnie was walking forward and let
good with a big left-hook that caught me flush on the side of my head. I blacked out while
I was on my feet."
