WTHE best nght of a long night at the Elephant,
which started at 6pm and ended after midnight,
came in the show<loser when former 1985 ABA
welterweight champion ERROL McDONALD made a
successful comeback, 30 months after his previous
contest, by flattening Bedford's unbeaten BOBBY
BANGHAR with a crushing right in the sixth and final
round.

•
WALSALL'S DELROY SPENCER
(M) avenged a loss to Gwyn
Evans in Peterborough three weeks
earlier when he outpointed twin
brother JAMIE EVANS (Sst) over four
rounds, in the process f i l i n g the
Wateriooville 19-year-old's paid
debut.
Evans, this year's ABA light-fly
champion, came forward and threw
plenty of punches, but achieved
little as he frequently gave himself
no room in which to work.
Spencer, who apparently thought
he was boxing Gwyn again until
promoter Frank IVWoney pointed out
the difference just seconds before
the first bell, was more qtaiing with
his punches, but landed the cleaner
shots.
A big last round, when Delroy
pinned the tiring Evans in a comer
briefly, clinched a 40-38 verdict from
referee Jeff Hinds for the Midlander,
who was oveijoyed at his first pro
victory (now 1-1).

WALTHAMSTOW hope MARK POTTER (16st 9 l/21bs) became the
latest to beat LADISLAV HUSARIK (18st lOlbs) when the flabby,
balding Czech was ruled out on a cut after one minute 23 seconds of the
last in a scheduled six-rounder on the Elephant undercard.
The wound, over the left eye and near the bridge of the nose, appeared
to have been caused by a clash of heads and referee Marcus McDonnell's
decision to call a halt left the import upset.
Few neutrals could have been unhappy, though, as Husarik's contribution
to the contest had been to grab hold whenever Potter came close -
persistent fouling which saw him docked a point in the fourth.
The 34-year-old Czech is a proficient survivor, however, and the way he
was able to soak up the Londoner's body shots and rights upstairs exposed
the one-paced, unimaginative nature of Mark's attacks.
But Potter's left jab was good when he used it and he was well ahead
when the cut brought the premature end.
