Championship

London, Jun. 22.--Freddie Mills, barrel-chested tough product of the British boxing booth, is being tipped to retain his World Light-Heavyweight Championship and upset the slight odds laid on Joey Maxim, the American challenger, at Earl's Court, London, on January 21,

This contest of clashing styles, with Mills, the fighter, taking everything on a big punch, against Maxim's boxing ability, captured the imagination of the British public and all seats were sold weeks beforehand.
