RINTY MONAGHAN FIGHTS TERRY ALLEN TONIGHT

Belfast, Sept. 28.-Two of boxing's "Mighty Midgets" clash at the King's Hall here tonight when Rinty Monaghan, the local favourite. defends his World, British, European and Empire Flyweight titles against Terry Allen, the North London costermonger challenger.

Apart from the championships involved, the contest holds additional interest since it will be a "rubber" meeting. In March, 1947, Monaghan gained a round victory over Allen, the referee stopping the contest, but Allen avenged this defeat last Februiry by out-classing the champion over eight rounds.

Both boxers had excuses for their defents. Allen, who was called in as a last-minute substitute, claimed that he was not at his best; Monaghan attributed his defeat to the fact that he had not fought for six months and was a little out in his distance.
