WELSH FANS ROAR ON REGAN TO EUROPEAN CROWN
 
Tibbs makes his mark in new division
 
Billy's Mexican test
 
Now give Holyfield he credit he deserves
 
DARREN DYER'S title hopes were kept alive when a
nasty cut prevented South African hard man Chris
Peters (lOst 91bs) from continuing in the ninth of
their scheduled 10-rounder and saved the former
Commonwealth Games gold medallist from
inevitable defeat.
 
BRITISH flyweight champion Robbie Regan added
the European crown before a delirious crowd at the
National Ice Rink with a unanimous, but narrow
points verdict over the hard-as-nails Italian, Salvatore
Fanni.
 
LIVERPOOL'S Andy Holligan, the British and Commonwealth
light-welterweight champion, had to dig
deep into his reserves of strength, resilience and
ambition to overcome American import Mark "Stinger"
Smith in the top-liner for National Promotions at
the Everton Park Sports Centre.
 
THE dark horse in the heavyweight division may still
be Michael Moorer.
The 25-year-old Detroit southpaw who holds the
meaningless WBO title gave the world a reminder
that he's still in the frame as he took out a giant
named Billy Wright from Kaysville, Utah, in 86 seconds
of round two.
 
HARD-HITTING cruiser John Ruiz, Chelsea, notched
his fourth straight win as a pro, unanimously outboxing
rugged James Johnson, Worcester, Massachusetts,
in a six-round main event before an overflow
crowd of 1,000 at the Wonderland Greyhound
Park.
 
A BIGGER entry this year (there were only nine
bouts in 1991) provided 18 bouts in the London
Junior ABA semi-finals and finals at York Hall with
Benny May winning over John Reynolds in a thriller,
and Kevin Lear leading the West Ham brigade of five
winners through to the next round
 
YOU COULDN'T ask for a more traditional
type of premises for a boxing club than those
of Croydon ABC. That is, over a pub where
the aroma of good English beer from the bar
mingles with the sweat and linament of the
gym, forming an ozone all of its own that only
the boxing aficionado can appreciate.
