On January 11, 1956 at Chicago Stadium heavyweights Bob Satterfield and Johnny Holman fought in a divisional matchup. Holman stopped Satterfield in the 8th round. Satterfield was knocked down in the 1st, 3rd, and 8th. The bout was stopped after he rose unsteady after the last knockdown. Four hours before the fight Satterfield was a 2 1/2-to-1 favorite to win, the odds shifted by fight time to make Holman an 8-to-5 favorite. Commissioner Lou Radzienda felt that the odds shift did not warrant an investigation though. Offered here is an original wire photo depicting Holman standing over a fallen Satterfield in the 8th round.
