WHEN iBF Junior-lightweight champion Tony Lopez stepped
into the ring with Brian Mitchell, the WBA champion,
we all expected a good fight. However, what we received
was something much, much more. Those lucky enough to
be there can say that they saw one of the great ones.
After twelve furious rounds the fight ended in a draw.
The decision might be disputed for some time to come, but
the fight itself will probably be talked about for even
longer. Quite simply, this one had everything.
From the opening bell we were treated to a magnificent
display of boxing, offensively and defensively. Both men
were in superb shape, and because of it they were able to
push themselves to the limit.

THE German Boxing Board showed a lack of guts in its
treatment of Marcus Bott after he failed a drugs test
following his loss to Johnny Nelson in an EBU title fight.
Their £330 fine and suspended sentence is derisory. Bott
probably earned ten or twenty times as much for the fight,
so he loses nothing.

THEY call him "Little Hands of Stone" but IBF light-flyweight
champion Michael Carbajal needed more than the
dynamite in his fists to retain his title against tough
Mexican challenger Javier Varguez at Ballys Hotel-
Casino.
Although Carbajal won by unanimous scores on all three
judges' scorecards, southpaw Varguez had given him one
of his toughest fights to date.

"TIGER" Tim Taylor, as he likes to be known, turned ringmaster to
tame talented Islington upstart Michael Scott as his Repton club
romped to a record-equalling five titles in the London ABA rinals being
held for the first time at York Hall.
Veteran Taylor, defending his ABA fight-middleweight crown, and
conceding 11 years in age touching 30, gave a classic demonstration of
the value of such experiences as he pulled back a first round deficit to
unanimously outscore the crisp-hitting and fleet-footed Young England
international.
