SOME people say it is easier to win a world title than to
hold on to it. It certainly proved so for Rolando
Pascua. The Filipono turned up in Los Angeles nine
pounds over the light-flyweight limit, which was suicidal.
He just threw his title away through lack of discipline
and his handlers are just as much to blame.
Eighteen-year-old Tommy Spinks won his first
amateur bout in February. Super-heavyweight Tommy
is the son of Leon. Now Leon says he is going to return
as a cruiserweight and brother Mike is rumoured to be
talking about a comeback.

THE truth of two mutually exclusive boxing cliches will be put to the test in Atlantic
City's Convention Center tonight when Evander Holyfield aims to prove that They
Never Come Back, while George Foreman seeks to demonstrate yet again that The
Last Thing A Puncher Loses Is His Punch.
The heavyweight championship of the world is at stake, despite the shameful
efforts of Don King and the WBC to with-hold recognition and force Holyfield to face
Mike Tyson instead. Of course, the WBO choose to behave like some Ruritanian
government-in-exile and recognise Ray Mercer as champion, while the UBA's title is
held by a Russian: enough said.

THE NAME of Jack Casey of Sunderland is legendary. He
was one of the toughest middleweights ever to enter a
ring, and even the great Len Harvey found him quite a
handful. In 1937 Jack was coming towards the end of his
fine career, but was still a force to be reckoned with, in
December of that year Jack appeared at Newcastle. His
opponent — 21-year-old Jackie Moran from Carlisle.
Casey started favourite, but Moran (right) hadn't read
the script.
