Ali Spinks bout not the only title fights on card
Promoter Bob Arum disclosed plans for four potential championship bouts preceding the Muhammad Ali Leon Spinks fight on Sept 15 in New Orleans. Possible matches include Victor Galindez defending the light heavyweight crown against Jerry Celestine, with alternate plans involving Hugo Corro Marvin Hagler or Dave Love. A featherweight title defense by Danny Lopez and a possible Gushiken bout could also anchor the long program. If all go, it would be the first time since 1937 that four titles are decided on a single night in one city.
