RICHARDS AGAIN BEATS SABATINO SYDNEY, November 21). The return bout between Ron Richards (11.11) and Atilio Sabatino (11.0) at the Sydney Sports arena tonight resulted in Richards winning on a technical knock-out in the tenth round. A vast crowd witnessed a stirring contest, fast and even, both men taking severe punishment. Richards never fought better, using both hands to his opponent’s head and body. Sabatino, whose eye was damaged, was compelled to dance round the ring to escape the onslaught, but he himself became the aggressor from the fifth to the eighth round, when lie looked a winner, hut Richards staged a thrilling comeback in the ninth and tenth.
