Should everything run smooth fistiania fans Wu have an opportuni of also seeing none other than "Yam" Yamolovich in action, as feelers have c; bééh'sent out to Nicky Wan in the hope of the latter defending his Red light-heavyweight crown of China.
With either of the above bouts listed, the Hall would be packed as a perfect" supporting" card could be with the galaxy of talent hvallaBlé inthe Marine stable.

"Happy" Welch needs no introduction and has proved himself a worthy successor fo Freddie Lenkoski, who is now reported as holding: his own in the States. Given a punch. Happy would go a long way as he is a shoppy and clean gater who is ready to mix it at all times, and in Kulinberg he will snd plenty of action.
