Gil Cadilli/Jimmy Moser...Jan,11.1958...

Once an Angeleno, now a San Franciscan-but still a Californian-Gil Cadilli, 131, scored the unanimous 10-round verdict over Jimmy Moser, 131, at the Hollywood Legion Stadium. Moser substituted for Alfredo Escobar, who withdrew because of "assorted miseries." About 2700 fans paid a gross of $3,540 to see the scrap. Cadilli was penalized one point for a blow below the Mason-Dixon line in the 7th round. The ballots: Referee John Thomas, 96-94: Judge Frankie Van, 97-92: Judge Jimmy Wilson, 97-94. Actually, Moser was substituting for a substitute; when Escober pulled out. Lauro Salas was substituted, but Lauro was unable to go through because he had a previous commitment at the Olympic. Considering the short notice, Moser made a good showing.
