On June 19, 1946 World Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis fought tough Billy Conn for the second time in New York. Louis had a very difficult time with Conn in their first meeting, but not this time as he stopped Conn in 8 rounds.

NBC telecast the fight and was sponsored by Gillette Safety Razor Company. Presented here is an original Weigh In Pass for this event.
