Day s Best despite putting woes heavy elimination bout powerful Bonavena to test Mildenberger s durability Frankfurt a Kar Mildenberger a solid West Ger Man with built in durability and Oscar Bonavena talkative Argentine Champ who packs a lust Wallop meet Here next saturday in a scheduled 12-round heavy weight elimination fight. Private bettors have Milden Berg a 4-1 favorite. But if the shaggy Bonavena is to be believed Mildenberger Back in training after a bout of influenza will catch More than a cold in the open air stadium where the fight is being staged. Bonavena obviously does t approve of the Odds. I tear him apart. I Knock him Flat on Misback. 1 end it maybe in the fourth or fifth round. I am the next world Champion he said in one of his quieter bout is one of four Elimina Tion matches to find the Succes Sor to former heavy Champ Cas Sius is Clear that while Bonavena 24, Speaks Only halting English he copes admirably with the few words he he can Cope with the 29 year old Mildenberger is the question. A More unorthodox Boxer tha Bonavena would be hard to find. A natural Southpaw he write with his left hand Bonavena switched to the right handed stance at the Start of his professional career but in the in fighting he tends to revert to the Southpaw method following up right jabs with swinging lefts that begin somewhere behind his left knee. It should be a novel experience for Southpaw Mildenberg who May face a barrage of blow sin the Early rounds considerable crowding and a number of left Hooks an antidote to his South Paw stance. Slow starter Mildenberger a notoriously slow starter took some of the Best that Clay handed out but then in his next fight was dumped by italian Piero Toma Soni in the first round of a european title bout. Mik Lenberger went on to win that one but the memory of his going Down i rom a Short left the first punch tithe fight still rankles. Mildenberger May wisely be planning to stay at a distance waiting for Bonavena to run out of steam. Mildenberger s Man Ager Wolfgang Mueller said Bonavena is probably the hardest puncher in this tournament More a w k w a r d tha Tomasoni but twice As Strong. But he fades after the Early rounds and that s when Karl really gets going. For my Money the fight will go the distance an Karl will win on general feeling is that if Mil Denberger is still around by the sixth round that is what Yil happen. Not Many seem to think that Mildenberger has the punch to put Bonavena Down let alone he was stopped in 12 rounds by Clay Mildenberger has fought three fights and won them All. After Deci Sioning Toma Soni he knocked put Britain s Billy Walker in the eighth Adamos Lincoln in the sixth. He has won 52 of his 5s fights.18 on knockouts drawn three and lost has knocked out 23 of his 31 opponents winning 2sand losing t h r e e. Probably his Best fight was against Loo . Bonavena lost a 10-Rouml decision a f t e r putting the Canvas twice in the Sec Ond round. He Lias won his Las five fights on knockouts. Ringside judges will be an Argentine and a German. An Amer ican. \7et to be named will ref Eide. A near capacity crowd of let ,-000 is expected to turn out for the fight paying Price ranging to nearly $10. Vantage had been Cut to three strokes. Arnie showed however that he is not the Type to fold Heran in a 26-foot Uphill putt on the Par three 15th for a Bird to regain one of his lost strokes from Terjesen s Par. Each parred in to maintain the four ? Oke difference. Hedrick who complained Heddin t drop a putt Over four feet All Day was tremendous with his Irons.
