BROCKLEY'S Glazz Campbell did his chance of a British title shot at Crawford
Ashley no harm at all when he acquired the Southern Area light-heavyweight title at
his second attempt by knocking out Norwich's Richard Bustin in the seventh round
on Matchroom's well-attended promotion at the Sport Village.
After taking a strength-sapping body blow, Bustin crumbled and was counted out
by referee Richie Davies with only four seconds of the round remaining.

LOCAL Hero Neville Brown offered a yardstick between
his progress and that of old rival Richie
Woodhall when he crushed the resistance of Birmingham
light-middleweight Colin Pitters.
Woodhall had been taken the full eight rounds by the
awkward, shifty Pitters three weeks earlier, but Brown
simply brushed him aside in three rounds.
Pitters ( 11 s t 3lbs) ran in the first round, poking out
long left jabs. He was probably trying to use the same
tactics which had irritated Woodhall — moving and
jabbing for five or six rounds, then coming forwards
towards the end.

SUDDENLY the world heavyweight championship seems wide open.
Evander Holyfield achieved the result expected of him in stopping
substitute challenger Bert Cooper in seven rounds before 11,000
fans in a packed Omni Arena.
But in the space of 20 seconds during round three, Cooper
exposed a vulnerability in the 29-year-old champion that will have
other contenders queueing up to fight him.

IBF light-middleweight champion GIANFRANCO ROSI
stayed on top of the pile by outboxing Californian
challenger GILBERT BAPTIST.
The 34-year-old from nearby Assisi, making his
seventh IBF defence, outboxed Baptist from start to
finish and delighted his 4,000 local fans.
Rosi used his jab and right cross to catch Baptist
coming in time and again and although the American
never stopped trying he could make no impression on
the champion's tight defence.
