Chuvalo Toronto vs Pat McMurtry right across the border For days this was all the wire services could offer You know the result of the tight Chuvalo was there in body only And while Chuvalo has been

that Chuvan would have beaten Erskine had thebout not been stopped Tomlwas one of those that couldnt see the illegal blows such as head butts and low punches At the same time Nelson whos been in Toronto long time admitted that George did lack ambition He dosent like to train said Tom In the meanwhile Cleroux is fighting and mak ing name for hirnseli across the border if not here Hes making
