[Saddle r Too Tough ForElorde; Wins |
SAN FRANCISCO (ANP)
Sandy Saddler today Is still the
featherweight, champion of the
world.
The bid of Gabriel t Flash! El
orde to rest the crown from the i
rugged champioT, failed last week |
when Saddler scored a 13-round
technical knockout over his youn
ger opponent.
But Saddler's prestige may
have suffered as a result of
the fight. The largely partisan
audience booed Saddler fre
quently for what It considered
iHegal infighting:. In the clin
ches Saddler at times would
get his right hand tree and
whip it to the body, and on
one occasion appeared to have
hit on the break. However,
the referee did not penalize
him for it,
Elorde, a southpaw fighting out
of the Philippines, save Saddler
considerable trouble in the early
rounds. But in the eighth, Sandy
opened a cut over Gabriel’s eye
which bled freely. Sandy pressed
the attack after that, and Elorde
appeared to be running out of
gas as the 13th got underway.
The fight was stopped at 59
seconds of the 13th, after a con
sultation between Referee Ray
Flores and Dr Robert Louden,
the official ring physician.
