DORSET'S TITLE IN ONE
 
STEVE McCARTHY's astonishing withdrawal from his British lightheavyweight
title defence against Roy Skeldon inevitably wrecked
Pro-Sport's show at Central Hall.
McCarthy's walkout is dealt with in a separate story on page 9, but
the incident created a hollow, empty atmosphere that was impossible
to dispel.
Nevertheless, for the paying customers who didn't take up the offer
of a refund, a six-fight bill
provided some entertainment.
 
THE eight-fight programme provided the fans with
full value for money for more than three hours.
Irish puncher EAMONN LOUGHRAN (lOst lOlbs)
making his fourth appearance in Wales, maintained
his unbeaten record by knocking out TERRY
MORRILL (Hull), also lOst lOlbs, in the first of a
scheduled eight threes contest.
 
THE STRENGTH of Welsh junior boxing was strikingly
illustrated when a star-studded home team, including
three current and three former Schoolboy titleholders,
defeated their English opponents by a margin of eleven
bouts to two at a prestigious Dinner Tournament held
in the Leisure Centre.
Three pairings were actual re-runs of 1991 Schools'
ABA Finals with five out of twelve points decisions
being by the majority route.
 
THE FINAL international of the season to be promoted by St. Francis
ABC in the Angus Hotel was fraught with problems. Firstly, original •
opponents Canada pulled out for financial reasons, and then
substitutes Wales called off the bout between Scotland's Steven
Wilson and Lee Hogan although they did eventually box a
spirited "exhibition" contest.
 
THE GHOSTS of Jack Dempsey and Jack Kearns are
undoubtedly smiling as professional boxing returned to
this small town 68 years after the legendary Dempsey
— Tommy Gibbons fiasco broke three banks.
This time, unbeaten Todd Foster won his 19th
straight fight after game Tommy Hanks couldn't come
out for the 10th round. To prove the spirit of "Kearns"
still wafts through the rarified country air, promoter
Bob Arum decided to bill the Foster-Hanks fight for the
Montana lightweight championship.
