SINCE Londonder Sid Smith was crowned the first British flyweight champion
in 1911, nine Scots have won the title and three returned to their families
defeated. That makes Danny Flynn, the 22-year-old Edinburgh boxer the 13th
challenger when he faces champion Hugh Russell in Belfast on Tuesday. The
other Friday, after a visit to the offices of Boxing News in the shadow of the big
BBC building, a raggle-taggle ringside regular with a strong Scottish accent let
out a bellow in the vicinity of Oxford DANNY FLYNN
Circus and caused a few heads to turn.

WITH the blockbuster payday against Gerrie Coetzee
KO'd by a court decision it's business as usual for Larry
Holmes tonight (November 9).
Holmes defends his International Boxing Federation
heavyweight title against James "Bonecrusher" Smith over
15 rounds at the Riviera casino hotel, Las Vegas.

HOME TOWN hero Bill Costello retained his WBC
lightweight title by hammering out a lopsided, unanimous
12-round decision over veteran former champion Saoul
Mamby.
But while the local fans were delighted with the
unbeaten Costello's performance, the big excitement came
on the same show when Jaime Garza was sensationally
knocked out in the first round by Juan "Kid" Meza to lose
his WBC super-bantam title and undefeated record.

KINGSTON super-heavyweight Bobby Wells, Britain's
only medallist in the summer Olympics, met crushing
defeat in his first outing since mounting the Los Angeles
rostrum.
Wells, who won a bronze in California, was clean
kayoed for the first time in his career by 'Lethal' Lennox
Lewis, the reigning world junior champion, in England's
6-6 drawn international against Canada at the Leisure
Centre.
Lewis, just 19, who was in the other half of the Olympic
draw and went out in the quarter-finals to eventual
champion Tyrell Biggs of the US, always threatened
danger.
