ROBINSON: THE P IDI OF WALES
 
Lloyd looks the part
 
Duran terror is gene
 
He's nothing but a faded legend
 
Tony's after Eubank again
 
Lopez breezes to victory
 
HENRY WHARTON, official number one contender
for Nigel Benn's WBC super-middleweight title, sent
out a warning to the Dark Destroyer with the most
impressive finish of his 18-fight career.
Wharton (12st l3/ilbs), in only his second bout
since an operation on his right hand, unleashed a
powerful combination in the third round of his fight
with American Royan Hammond to send Hammond
crashing.
 
YOUR OWN views on splintered world
championships may well reflect our
own (see pages 16-18), but you would
be well advised not to air them within
earshot of Steve Robinson and Sean
Murphy, who meet at Cardiff's National
Ice Rink tomorrow
night(Saturday) with
the Welshman's WBO
featherweight title at
stake.
 
IT may be that some economic sense is creeping
into boxing. The Evander Holyfield-Alex Stewart
show was promoted jointly by 12 casinos in Atlantic
City. In this way, the losses, if any, would be split,
and each gets a slice of the action. It is the first time
such a thing has happened and it could also lead to
a lower level of site fees if they are not all competing
for the same fight.
 
ON JULY 25, the British super-featherweight title will be contested at Oldham.
The previous 13 championships at this weight have all been televised on one
channel or another, but not this one. Phil Martin, who manages challenger Steve
Walker and also co-promotes the show, wants to know why.
He'd like to know as well why TV were not interested in Frank Grant's British
middleweight title defence against Neville Brown, in a rematch between Paul
Burke and Billy Schwer for the lightweight title, or in a cruiserweight pairing of
Carl Thompson and Glenn McCrory.
 
THE SIGHT of thirteen lusty Welshmen singing
When You Come Home Again To Wales was one for
sore eyes. The impromptu choir, from Swansea &
South Wales EBA, led by their president Cliff Curvis,
were in fine voice when they attended the July
meeting of the London Ex-Boxers' Association. It
was their first visit and we sincerely hope It won't
be their last. It was great having them, and from all
accounts they thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
