HOLMES, 42 , LOOKING FOR A MIRACLE
Irish Hall of Fame awards
Classy McGirt will be too much for Italian hero
McAuley loses his crown and a fortune
HERBIE HIDE rolled his eyes to the ceiling and smiled: "All right, all
right, but you've got to remember that three weeks after I knocked
out Percell Davis he fought Michael Dokes and he took Michael
Dokes to six rounds, so what do you call that?"
The Norwich heavyweight hope's rationale behind his risible
70-second blowout of the blimp-like Davis last March, contains a
kind of logic, if nothing else.
However, coming on the back of a sequence of quick wins over
similarly non-combative opponents, it seems the undefeated Hide is
in danger of stunting his fistic education for want of more testing
competition.

IBF MIDDLEWEIGHT champion James "Lights Out"
Toney had a ridiculously easy non-title match at the
Palace when he knocked out journeyman Ricky Stackhouse
in the third round of a match that should never
have been allowed to take place.

BATTERSEA ABC, the world's oldest boxing club, held a gala
dinner show at the Town Hall on May 27 to celebrate its
115th year of amateur boxing, writes TONY FITCH.
Formed in 1878, the club has run continuously without
pausing even for the two world wars that took its star boxers
to foreign parts, some sadly failing to return.
In the 1970s the club fell on hard times and almost
faltered, but somehow managed to keep going. Now in
happier times and with a new and dynamic management
committee, Battersea is experiencing a new lease of life with
its first London champion for eight years in the shape of
light-welterweight Cham Joof.
