Bivins. who lets his opponents
decide whether the bout will be q

been fighting since he was fly

His best weapon is said to be a

f1oored Bob Pastor, Gus Lesnevich
Mauriello and Billy Soose IN addi-
ton, he is rated above the average
in body punching.
Savold will have weight pull of
approximately is pounds and will
be making his first New York ap-

on October 30. Tami was to have
met Bivins tonight, but his Savold-

Tonight's winner is scheduled to

to a major bowl. The only question
was: Which do you think it'll be?'
The Sugar Bowl, the Orange Bow
and even the Rose Bowl figured in
the speculation.
