as he complained about the scoring.
He stated that the '3' Officials were pro-German and were against the Spanish Champion.
* Referee - Georges Gronde {France} ............... 73-68
* Judge - Kurt Rado {Austria} ........................... 72-70
* Judge - Domenica Carabellese {Italy} ............. 71-67
He felt that his fighter won, and retained the European Championship by 2-Points, stating that
Jose was the more eager and the stronger fighter for the first 10-Rounds.

"The '3' Judges were pro-German and gave several undeserved Rounds to Juergen Blin
because of technique, and not effective aggression. Jose landed the harder punches
throughout the first 10-Rounds."
"This decision is a Robbery. The '3' Officials were bought."
"Yes, Jose had many faults tonight, but he carried the fight to the Challenger for
2/3's of the bout. In my eyes, he won this bout by '2-Points' with room to spare."
