RICHIE WOODHALL must
travel to ItJiIy for his
mandatory WBC super-middleweight
title defence against exchampion
VINCENZO
NARDIELLO, with July 25 the
date. But promoter Don King,
who won the purse bids, has
not named the venue.
"I've got no fear of travelling
to Italy," said Woodhaii. "1
know 1 have to knock Nardiello
out - and that's exactly what 1
intend to do.
"I've just been ticking over
for a while, running and fishing
to stay relaxed, but feel great
and have got six weelcs now. I'm
confident and I'll st{>rt intensive
training straight away."

NOT IN the least concerned by
fears he will putting his health at
unneccessary risk by challenging WBO
cruiserweight champion - and recent
conqueror - CARL THOMPSON at the
Sheffield Arena on July 18, CHRIS
EUBANK was in fine form when the
fight was announced on board HMS
Belfast on the Thames last Monday.

RETURNING West Hammer GARRY DELANEY
(13st lOlbs) outscored another fighter on the
comeback trail, southpaw DARRON GRIFTITHS (ISst
91bs) from Perth, over six-threes on the Southend bill.
Referee Mark Green scored 59-56 in the popular
Delaney's favour, which seemed spot-on.
Delaney (left) looked the rustier to start with and
Griffiths edged the opener with his greater accuracy
and variety. The next two sessions were hard and
close, with both working well to head and body, trading
with both hands when in close.
Garry carried the heavier artillery and planted a
fierce right hook on Griffith's chin at the end of the
third.
Delaney started his push for victory in the fourth
when he threw big left and right hooks to the head,
drawing blood from the Welshman's nose to take the
round. Griffith batUed well with his left hand, but
Delaney's work was crisper.
