viii be in there to score a quick
knockout if possible. His injured
hand gave him a chance to develop
a mighty effective left, but he
wants to show the fans he still
can punch good enough to stop the
best Of his opponents.
This bout should be a corker.
Both boys can hit and each is
willing 10 take an extra belt to
score one.
But good as their bout will be
1t will have competition from
dozen or-so other battles which
could be rated as headliners.
Among the lightweights- there is
Francis MuHane of Holy Re-
deemer and James Palmer Of
Sacred Heart. This cannot help
but be a sensational fight. The
two lads know only one way to
fight and that is coming forward
at all times Each packs a wallop
good enough to score a knockout
and a win tonight will make the
Winter campaign a success for one
of them.
