Benvenuti Favored Over Fullmer For World Middleweight Title
In San Remo Italy Nino Benvenuti is the 3-1 favorite to beat Don Fullmer of Utah and defend the world middleweight crown. Benvenuti became the first Italian to win the title by outpointing Emile Griffith in 1967 and has not been knocked out in 80 pro fights. If Fullmer wins, he would become the 34th American to hold the 160-pound title and his brother Gene previously held the belt twice.
