EUROPEAN light-middleweight champion Maurice Hope,
awaiting a second chance at the world title, was not too
exciting as he took a points win over 10 rounds from black
American Melvin Dennis in the main event at the Albert
Hall.

EVERYTHING went pretty
much as expected as British
flyweight champ Charlie
Magri, Stepney (7st 13!bs
J4oz) eased to his f i f th
straight pro win, all inside
the distance, with a threer
o u n d s win over former
French champion Dominique
Cesari.

BERMONDSEY'S Gary Davidson kept his unbeaten record
and won the vacant Southern Area bantamweight title but
there was controversy at the end of his 10-rounder with
Eltham's brave and talented Dave Smith.

TEENAGE middleweight Tony Sibson came in as a shortnotice
substitute to save promoter Ron Gray's show at the
Civic Hall, and despite looking jaded after his fight at
Liverpool last Friday, Sibson raised his game sufficiently to
beat Birmingham's Steve Walker on a fifth-round stoppage.

EVERYONE loves a puncher, so they say, and they
don't hit much harder than welterweight Mick Mills.
Unbeaten in 14 fights, Mills has only let three
opponents stay the distance with him.
The 22-year-old Yorkshire bomber is managed by
Ernie Fossey who rates him as one of the best natural
punchers he has ever seen.
"I've had to make all his fights over two minute rounds,"
Fossey says, "otherwise he's never have had the experience
of going the distance — he'd have stopped them all."
