    Jake LaMotta vs. Bob Satterfield

    LaMotta 59-10-3
    Satterfield 13-2-1

    1946-09-12 : Jake LaMotta 167 lbs beat Bob Satterfield 164¾ lbs by KO at 1:50 in round 7 of 10
    • Location: Wrigley Field, Chicago, Illinois, USA
    • Referee: Davy Miller
    Satterfield held LaMotta on even terms in the early rounds, having his best moment in the 4th round, when he "shook LaMotta to his heels" with a right hand. Satterfield did not follow up though, and LaMotta began to take over the bout. In the 6th round, LaMotta chased Satterfield across the ring with a sustained attack. In the 7th, a left to the armpit appeared to stagger LaMotta. Satterfield soon showed signs of weariness, as he dropped his hands, and began to be pounded by LaMotta who landed at will on him. A left hook to the jaw, sent Satterfield to his knees, where he fell on to his back, to be counted out by referee Dave Miller.

    LaMotta was a hell of a body puncher. My guess is he chopped Satterfield down like tree.
