THE California!! Commission is taking a fresh look at its neurological
testing programme. It made the news again when the young
Mexican welterweight sensation Yori Boy Campas failed the lest
twice. Despite the failure, Campas had no trouble passing his
medical exam for Nevada. Two years ago Raul Perez only passed the
exam at his third try and Dominican Dio Colome has a case pending
against the commission, who denied him a licence when he failed
the test in 1988.

 

EUROPEAN boxing's worst mismatch since Frank Bruno
flattened Chuck Gardner in 1987 ended, predictably, with
blubbery American Percell Davis being counted out after
70 seconds of the opening round of his scheduled 10-
rounder with WBC International champion Herbie Hide.
Davis had not landed or even attempted a punch before he
subsided at the first hint of aggression
by the undefeated Hide.

 

SHOCK inside the distance wins for Mark Prince (over Monty
Wright) and Cham Joof (against Richie Edwards) set the York
Hall buzzing in the 17-bout London semi-finals with punchers
galore (nine stoppages), including a sensational third round
comeback win for Jason Matthews over Eamonn O'Riordan.
Back in the championships after losing to Mark Delaney in
the NE divs, Newco Repton's Monty Wright went out again
following a dramatic knockout loss to bright new prospect
Mark Prince at light heavyweight.
