Right you are! The announcer in the Kinescope film says it's the Joe Louis/Billy Conn rematch of 1946, and on the first page just to the left of the table of contents there is a reprint of the cover with a description under it which reads: "Scene at Yankee Stadium during the Louis-Conn fight, the first heavyweight championship match to be televised."
There is a great web site called vacuumtubeera.net which has a large number of magazines including a complete run of RCA Radio Age from 1942 to 1957 in pdf format.
