DENNIS ANDRIES will have all the advantages
when he makes the first defence of his WBC
light-heavyweight title against Commonwealth middleweight
champion Tony Sibson at the Alexandra
Palace on Wednesday (September 10).

J U L I O C E S A R C H A V E Z showed he can box skilfully a n d use t h e left j a b in his m a j o r i ty
12-round decision win over Rocky Lockridge at Monte Carlo.
The WBC super featherweight champion f r om Mexico isn't just a banger. The polite
Monaco crowd applauded the way he ducked, slid to t h e side and countered. Classy stuff.
And his uppercuts in the later rounds were things of beauty for the boxing purist.
Watching on American N B C T V , it seemed to me that Chavez was in control f o r most of
t h e fight. But Lockridge got in his own meaningful shots in t h e technically intriguing fight.
Chavez says he'll soon be moving u p t o lightweight. H e ' s finding it difficult g e t t i ng down
to 9st 41bs.

T H E I B F must have mixed feelings a b o u t its first v e n t u re
i n t o Britain with t h e Barry Michael-N^jib Daho fight.
It was a g o o d fight b e t w e e n two f i n e p r o f e s s i o n a l s and
received e x t e n s i v e c o v e r a g e o n ITV, but t h e press a n d the
general public r e a c t i o n m a d e it o b v i o u s t h a t it was not really
looked upon as a t r u e world title bout.
