THE colourful comeback of British heavyweight champion
Danny McAlinden has suddenly gone sadly awry.
Danny was clearly outpointed over 10 rounds by lanky
Irish Pat Duncan, from Nevada, at the Royal Albert Hall
and must be pondering his future.

ONCE again, Johnny Clark was forced to call
on his deep resources of pride and courage as
he outpointed Italian Salvatore Fabrizio over
15 rounds at the Royal Albert Hall to retain
his European bantamweight title, writes
GRAHAM HOUSTON.

LITTLE Alan Rudkin climbed into a hostile ring at the
Budokan hall, Tokyo, with the prestige of the Union Jack
weighing heavily on his shoulders. He was challenging for
the bantamweight championship of the world in only his
25th fight.

CHRISTY McLOUGHLIN (British Railways, Dublin),
last year's All-Ireland junior lightweight champion,
opened the New Year on a high note when he stopped
international Mickey Boyle (St Joseph's, Ballyboden) in
the second round of their light-welter bout on this
County Dublin Board tournament at the National
Stadium, writes Owen McCann.
