CLEVELAND, Jan. 16-The well
terweight divisions hardest punch
ers collide at the arena tonight and
the impact will shatter the impress
sive winning streaks of either Ray

It's practically a certainty that
either Robinson, called the un-
crowned king of the welters, OF
Bell, the Youngstown, Ohio, terror
will make a permanent or tenn
porary trip to the canvas during
their 10-rounder and the prospect
will lure approximately $4,000 Gus
toners.
Robinson, ranked by the National
Boxing Association as the logical
contender for the welterweight title
now held by the Navy's Freddie
(RedD Cochrane, has lost only one
of So professional scraps and has
kayoed 35 Of his victims.
He notched 40 straight triumphs
before Middleweight Jake La Motta
won a decision in February of 1943
Since then he's won II straight
including a decision over La Motta
in a return bout.
Bell has won % straight fights, 1S
by knockouts. He's fifth on the
NBA's list of welterweight con-
tenders, but a victory tonight may
boost him to the challenger's spot
The Sugar Boy is a 2-to-1 betting
favorite despite the fact that Bell
generally is regarded as the heavier
puncher.
Robinson never has kayoed a foe
with a single punch, but Bell has
demonstrated he can terminate
hostilities at any time with one wal
