Dateline September 15, 1923 -- Boston Garden: Hot ring prospect "Slapsie Maxie" Rosenbloom takes on his second pro opponent here tonight, in a four-round prelim bout versus Cuban TC, Lazaro Carillo who lost his only previous bout.

Round one: Bell sounds, Rosenbloom fights aggressively from the outside. He nails Carillo with a hook to the body, then follows immediately with a right cross. Carillo is in full retreat as Rosenbloom continues his assault with a combined head and body attack. Rosenbloom's superior hand speed and quick movement is too much for his Cuban opponent to handle. Rosenbloom bobs and weaves his way inside, but then he misses with a roundhouse left. Carillo is not throwing much leather, and Rosenbloom probes an opening with a jab, then connects with a short hook. Tough luck for the hapless Castillo, as that punch opens a serious cut over the right eye. The ref, Arthur Donovan, has seen enough, and he waves the fight off.

It goes down as a TKO win for Rosenbloom at 2:27 of the first. Maxie moves to 2-0 (1) and 279 PPs. No more bouts until November, as Maxie takes a bit of a breather then back to some more training as he steps up to six round bouts.
