ERROL CHRISTIE needed only 64 seconds to crush Harlein
"The Hammer" Holden at a fever-pitch Coventry
Sports Centre.
The explosive-hitting former amateur star has set his
home city alive in the few short months since he turned
professional with Burt McCarthy.
And more than 1,000 turned out to see him top the bill
against his first American opponent. They were not disappointed.

THE Yorkshire Executive Sporting Club's show on Monday
proved a nightmare for matchmaker Tommy Miller.
Two boxers pulled out at 5pm, and the show ended with
only two bouts and a hastily-arranged exhibition between
Hartlepool's PAUL KEERS and Manchester's IAN
MURRAY.

CAMERON LITHGOW of Swindon meets Wolverhapton
southpaw MICK MORRIS over six threes. This looks a good
match and two-fight unbeaten Lithgow faces no easy touch in
Morris.
Morris, 25, turned pro in 1978 and has had ove> 30 fights. He
looked very unlucky recently to lose to undefeated Keith James,
and last week had a good win on the continent against Hendrik
Seys.
This should be a hard, sometimes scrappy battle It could go
either way, but Lithgow's superior strength can clinch it.

JUAN LAPORTE, roared on by his Puerto Rican countrymen,
retained his WBC featherweight title by pounding
out a unanimous, 12-round decision over the ringwise Ruben
Castillo, from Bakersfield, California, at the Roberto
Clemente Coliseum.

GEORGE FEENEY earned the respect of the sometime
cynical Americans in his brave, though losing, fight with
Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini, the World Boxing Association
lightweight champion.
Dr. Ferdie Pacheco, commenting at ringside in St. Vincent,
Italy, for the NBC-TV live telecast, was initially sceptical.

FORMER WBC junior-lightweight champion Cornelius
Boza-Edward has a tough but well-paid warm-up against exworld
lightweight champion Claude Noel over 10 rounds at
the Showboat at Hotel, Las Vegas, tomorrow (Saturday).
The fight is televised in the US and will serve to whet the
appetite of the American public for Boza's WBC juniorlightweight
tide challenge to Bobby Chacon.
