January 1961

(6) Plinio Scarabellin 8-0 (4) vs (5) Piero Tomasini 3-0 (1)

Scarabellin got off to a fast start and never seemed to look back. He took the fight to Tomasini to put him down on the canvas twice in the first two rounds. By the 4th round Tomasini had swelling in both eyes and was far behind on the score cards already. At the 2:33 mark in the 5th round Scarabellin hit Tomasini with a cross to the head that sent Tomasini down for the count. Plinio Scarabellin became the first IHBA Champion.
