(Original Caption) 9/28/1945-New York, NY- Rocky Graziano stands over Harold Green after knocking him down in the third round. Referee Ruby Goldstein had counted the final number over Green when he leaped to his feet and tried to continue the fight. This action started a riot and 20,000 fans at the Garden got more than they paid for. The ring was turned into a scrambling melee of fighters, referee's handlers and police. When the shoutng died down, it was Graziano by a knockout in 1:45 of the third round.
