Boos For Big, Bad Bob

Remember the words describing John in the hit of yesteryear "Big, Bad John"? "Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip". They hardly described Big Bag Bob Banard who wrestled Charles Kontellis in one of two pro fights at the Y.M.C.A. He was kinda wobbly at the paunch and shiny on the nob, and the fans had their fun abusing Big, Bad Bob. Quite an act he had. He needed it, to cover the inadequacies of Kontellis. The first bout, between Steve Rickard and Tony Kontellis, was much more entertaining, with each man displaying a wide variety of holds.

"Alms for the love of Allah" or "lemme outa here" appeals Bob.

Hooked up in the corner, Kontellis takes a thumping from Bob, despite ref Nelson Hill's pleas to desist.

"Ooh, I can't bear to watch him."
