REPORTS SAY
ARIzMEMDI IS
\ \ IN FOR FIGHT.

Baby Arizmendi is taking a
chance in getting into the ring
with Jimmie Uchida in the main
event at the Imperial Valley Ath-
letic club Friday night, according
to reports from the coast to Pete
Buzukus, club matchmaker.
Sports writers in the Los Angeles
area consider Uuchida one of tie
up and coming boxers, with a
good chance to obtain national
recognition. and assert that Ariz-
mendi had better be in good shape
and ready to fight every minute
if he wants tc get the decision
over the japanese boxer.
AS the Mexican idol is trying to
reestablish himself in the good
graces of the fans after a few set
backs. it is not likely he will take
any unnecessary chances with Uch-
ida for q defeat now would wipe
cut much of the good he has ac-
compliShed since settling down to
real seriousness about his fighting
few months ago.
he arrived from Mexico caused him
to get careless and he met defeat
in several bouts A change Of man
ayers and the roasting of the sports
writer's and Mexican fans, made
him see the light and he has been
setting a fast pace in his more
recent bouts.
Uchida recognizes the fact that
win over Arizmcndi will boost
his chances for better bouts on
the coast and he plans to be in
there trying all the time.
The match bout between Tony
Garcia and Bobby Leyvas has been
placed in the Semi-final spot fol-
lowing the hot battle these two
boys put up last week and fans
are expecting to see the fur fly
when they start hurting leather.
They are well matched and an
XiouS to fight, two things that Of
ten make for a better fight than
experience and skill.
Murder Wilson and Roy john
son are in the special event spot,
and the former, who made a hit
by winning last week after a bad

picked as a favorite to defeat
