1952-06-11 Jake LaMotta - Bob Murphy II

On June 11, 1952, Jake LaMotta met hard-hitting southpaw Bob Murphy for their second encounter at the Chicago Stadium. LaMotta, the former middleweight champion known for his iron chin and relentless pressure, had moved up to light heavyweight, while Murphy, a dangerous puncher, was eager to avenge his earlier loss to “The Raging Bull.” This time, Murphy imposed his will early. Using his strength and powerful left hand, he consistently forced LaMotta onto the defensive. LaMotta, though as tough as ever, struggled to handle Murphy’s heavier punches and couldn’t turn the tide. In the seventh round, the referee stopped the fight, awarding Murphy a technical knockout victory. The bout marked one of LaMotta’s final appearances in the ring, signaling the decline of his career. For Murphy, the victory over a legendary name boosted his reputation as one of the division’s most dangerous brawlers.
