Dang. Didn't get to see it. The listing's been removed. I guess somebody bought it.

I corrected the link, don't know why it said craigslist. Try now.

So who won the fight?

So who won the fight?

Dick Tiger was challenger
Giardello was champ at the time
Met in Madison Square Garden

....seems to match everything in the article.

Tiger wins by decision.

I didn't either, but I figured if they had some stills of him hitting the bag maybe there was some old footage of him or his fights. Apparently these two went at it four times, and this one met all the facts stated in the picture of who was champ, where the fight was located, and the fact the Giardello was returning to NY and madison square garden for the first time in many years, which means he didn't have a training location there with equipment....

anyway it was a lucky guess. Now Dutchman and Paranday are scary when it comes to tracking down anything about vintage speed bag or boxing equipment, or the companies that made it.
