MANCHESTER'S Mohammed Lovelock made it third
time lucky in his series with Sugar Gibilru of Liverpool in
the eight-twos main event on the Jewish Blind Aid Society
charity show at the Free Trade Hall.

FORMER amateur international Colin Lynch returned to
the winning trail with a solid, sixth round stoppage of gritty
Hull trier Stuart Carmichael at the Royal Spa Centre,
writes BOB MEE.
Lynch, 25, was having only his third pro fight, but came
into the ring as a man on a comeback trail. At least, that's
how he saw it following his third round stoppage defeat
against Shane Porter for the Midlands Area featherweight
title in March.

THE gulf between Evander Holyfield and the cruiserweight
contenders was emphasised in a cable TV fight out
of Memphis, Tennessee on May 21 as local fighter Michael
Greer won a unanimous 12-round decision over Johnny
Davis in a battle of the veterans.
Greer has boxed for the World Boxing Council title and is
ranked No. 4 by the WBC (though only No. 12 in the
Boxing News top 15).
But Holyfield's in a different league. Greer (and others)
will have to wait and hope that Holyfield outgrows the
weight class.

MARK KAYLOR and DAVID DENT have
been added to the June 27 show in Cannes on
which their Terry Lawless stablemate Frank
Bruno meets American Chuck Gardner.
Former British and Commonwealth middleweight
champion Kaylor, now campaigning
at light-heavy, may meet JO "YOMBO"
ARAKA, originally from the Cameroon but
now based in France.

THERE comes a time in the course of a career when one is at the
crossroads. Should it be left, should it be right, or should it be straight
ahead? We don't always decide for the best, and I hold the strong
conviction that if Dave Sands had come to England when invited, and
met Randolph Turpin in defence of his British Empire middleweight
crown, the whole course of fistic history might well have been changed
and quite possibly the famous Australian would have been alive today.
