Frazier put Bugner down with a left hook in a neutral corner in the tenth round.


Joe Frazier won his first fight tonight since losing his heavyweight championship last January. But his 12‐round decision over Joe Bugner may have done more for his opponent's reputation than for his.

Working from a glowering rage before the, fight and charging relentlessly, Frazier managed to knock down his taller, heavier oponent for count of 9 in the 10th round.

However, Bugner came up off his knees to stagger Frazier in the same round and close his left eye. The final minutes passed with the estimated crowd of 14,000 cheering Bugner as they used to cheer Henry Cooper, their heroic and oftenbloodied contender of the previous generation.

With the new champion, George Foreman, sitting a few feet below him, there was no doubt Frazier wanted to put Bugner away.
