Although he is meeting Percy Lake for the lightweight pionship of the Colony, Pte. Nixon, of the 39th M. T. Co... will on Saturday make his final as well as his initial bow to the Hongkong public, as his Company leaves For Home on the following day. It is rather unfortunate for box- ing in Hongkong as Nixon is a man of excellent reputation and at Home was a regular performer at the Ring.
He will need to fight well on Saturday to defeat Stoker Percy Lake, the brother of the more famous "Bugler" Lake, who is one of the cleverest boxers in the China Squadron. Nixon, however,' is greatly favoured in some quar- Lers, and though he is perhaps a trile on the slow side compared with his opponent, he has a re- markable punch for a lightweight and may easily wear Lake down.
