AFRICAN welterweight champion Judas Clottey burst
the Lloyd Christie bubble with a five-rounds injury
stoppage at the Midlands Sporting Club.
Christie's run of quick wins was ended by a gaping hole
in the corner of his lip which later required six stitches.

BRITISH light-heavyweight champion Dennis Andries
advance his claims to a shot at the European title when he
stopped Belgian puncher Jose Seys in the third round of
their scheduled 10-round main event at the Lyceum

Green and Tony Tubbs all have two things in common —

ONE OF the most entertaining George Wimpey ABA
quarter-final clashes for years between the Western
Counties and the Combined Services thrilled a capacity
crowd at the Sports Centre — a new venue for the national
championships.
With so many quality contests to choose from particularly
in the first-half of the programme, it was difficult to

bitterly-contested majority win for Royal Navy featherweight
Colin Day who ended the title aspirations of last
season's Wembley finalist Paul Moylett (Hartcliffel.
For the young Marine there was the added satisfaction
of taking devastating retribution for his undeserved defeat
from Moylett in the corresponding match last year.
This was the contest which really set the Sports Centre
crowd alight — a bout of blazing action, and punishing
hitting, with the pendulum swinging one way then the
other.
