Ex-champion Roland wins Australasia heavyweight title
In a brutal Sydney Stadium bout Roland defeated Colin Bell in the thirteenth round to claim the heavyweight championship of Australasia. Bell endured a fierce barrage with Bell staggering, failing to regain balance, and Roland pressing the attack until a decisive finish. The referee ruled a foul earlier, but Roland dominated the late rounds as Bell, battered and exhausted, could not mount a comeback.
