LENNOX LEWIS always knew he would have more than
just the formidable Tony Tucker to beat in Las Vegas
tomorrow night. But the appointment of two British
judges, Harry Gibbs and Mickey Vann, to his Don King
promoted WBC title defence gives the British fighter a
major boost before a contest that is a crucial test of his
credibility as the world's No. 1.

THE WBA's decision not to put David Gonzales in their ratings
might seem on the face of it to be a case of a sanctioning body
refusing to manipulate its ratings to suit a promoter, but to me it
seems just a case of them jumping through a hoop for a different
promoter.
At the WBA's Executive Committee meeting in Paris last month
they made a number of rulings. Bobby Czyz must defend against
Orlin Norris by the end of June or he will be stripped of his title
and Norris will face Marcelo Figueroa. Reggie Johnson had a
defence arranged against Jorge Castro. Julio Vasquez defended
against Francisco Castillejo. Crisanto Espana's mandatory
defence must be with Ike Quartey. Juan Coggi must defend
against Valery Kayumba and Genaro Hernandez must face
Harold Warren in his mandatory defence.

in major international amateur boxing events, the
most valuable is probably experience.
That's why English pair of Paul Ingle and Peter
Richardson have a right to feel confident when
they take their place among a record 348 entries
from 62 nations (including 80 from 12 countries
which used to form the Soviet Union) at the World
Senior Championships which start in Tampere, Finland
today (Friday) and last until May 15.
For both took part in the last world event, in Sydney
in November 1991 - and that makes them the
only Englishmen ever to box in two world amateur
championships.
