Boxing News 1975 Memorabilia
 
I THINK that even Bunny Johnson must wish Danny McAlinden a Happy New
Year for 1975. Another year like the last two would surely make the Coventry
Irishman more than a little eager to get back to the car assembly lines and forget
the fight game.
 
IT'S the moment of truth for Danny McAlinden, who wins my award as the
Unluckiest Boxer of 1974 (and 1973 for that matter), at the World Sporting Club,
London on Monday when at last (barring any more last minute hitches) he is due
to defend his British and Commonwealth titles against Bunny Johnson.
 
BRITAIN'S senior pro, Battersea welterweight Ray Fallone, boxed — and lost —
five times in 1974 to bring his overall record to an incredible 93 fights, 18 wins, five
draws, and 70 defeats.
 
WALES have a busy programme this month with two representative matches lined up
within six days of each other. They face the Southern division of the W. Counties on
January 17 at Teignmouth, and then meet the Midland Counties in Solihull, Birmingham
on January 23
 
Fifteen million TV watchers saw the American hosts draw with the visiting Hungarian
national squad in their first match in Cleveland's new sports hall, though the live gate was
only 4,000. Present was the Hungarian Ambassador, Dr Karoly Szabo, but not the
much-awaited Muhammad AU, and most pf the spectators who turned out were of
Hungarian origin not surprisingly perhaps, since Cleveland boasts the second largest
Hungarian population in the US after Detroit.
 
SCOTTISH light-flyweight international MARTIN LAWLESS gave an indication on the
annual Edinburgh City Police show of just how difficult he is going to be to beat when the
time comes for him to begin his ABA title challenge.
 
SLIM-LINE WOOD VICTOR ATTIVOR will be hoping to make it third time lucky when
he meets ex-ABA heavyweight champion Tim Wood on Monday.
They clash over eight rounds at Nottingham's Great International
Sporting Club.
Attivor, a Ghanaian living in Clapham, has lost his last two
fights, but both were to former British champions and in both cases
Victor lost by only half a point. Bunny Sterling and Chris Finnegan
were the respective parties of the second part, and the Finnegan
defeat at least was by no means popular with the spectators.
Victor turned pro in April last year and has won six out of his
nine bouts. His third loss was to Barking prospect Billy Williams,
who again scraped home by the minimum, half-point margin.
Tim Wood also has three losses on his pro record, but these came
in his last three bouts. He desperately needs to win.
Les Stevens and Richard Dunn took clear decisions over Wood,
and in between Eddie Neilson scored a perfect, one-punch
knockout in seven rounds. But Tim gave all his conquerors plenty
of trouble
