Pete Sanstol, age 21, weight 54 kilo.

Started boxing in Stavanger 1919. Became "Quarter Champion" in the Norwegian championships in Drammen 1923 [BoxRec Note: This was the tournament that had to be broken off as it was not finished by the early hours of Monday] and Norwegian Champion 1925. He defeated a row of outstanding boxers, among others the Germans Dublers and Hinsch, the Dane Mikael Laursen, the Swedes Gustafson and Mellstrom, and the Dutchman Ploots. He is now debuting as a pro, without putting his daily work aside (together with Aksel Normann he is running the workshop E. Malm & Sons).

Peter Sanstol has always been a smooth, calculating boxer with a powerful punch, and maintains that he now has been fighting as amateur for so long a time that he in order to give himself new challenges and to guide his team mates with the best advices possible, he will gain new experiences as a pro.

Bert Gallard, age 18, weight 8 stone 6 lbs.

As a substitute for Kid Harris who after negotiations with Nate Brooks was billed for a fight with Sanstol, this well built, brown eyed, small Londoner is here. In the the Metropol London there are so many fighters that it is almost impossible to judge what level they are on, but judging from Gallard's record and from what he has shown during training, he sure seems to be a man of class and fully capable to deliver a good fight.
