Solomons in form for SP Games
SOLOMONS stepped up their prep aration for the South Pacific Games, winning all their bouts on a one-programme tour of Fiji last month. 1989 Mini Games bronze medallists Inoke Siope and Charlie Bonas won unanimous decisions, and proved to be a lot smarter as they head for the South Pacific Games.
Light-welterweight Siope outclassed
a younger Anasa Cama while Bonas had too much power for Richard Abel.
Welterweight Greazley Makana won
a split points decision over Onisimo Roqica.
Bantamweight Lindley Taka did not fight because the organisers could not find a suitable opponent for him.
A second round of bouts was also cancelled because Fiji could not find boxers fit enough to tackle the visitors.
Solomons team manager Ho Ming Long said they had an unbeaten record against Papua New Guinea boxers lately and had expected to win all their fights in Fiji too. □
