	"Welshman Howard Winstone won a share of the vacant featherweight title Tuesday night by stopping Mitsunori Seki of Japan in the 9th round. Referee Roland Dakin, the only ring official under British rules, stopped the contest because of a bad cut over Seki's right eye. Winstone had been in command of the fight until the end, but a cut above his left eye had looked much worse than the damage Seki suffered. Seki had fought ferociously in the 7th and 8th rounds to try and get back into the fight and had prevented Winstone from setting the pace. Winstone came out fast in the 9th and rammed a solid jab on Seki's injured eye. When he saw blood he immediately pressed his attack and landed another succession of jabs on the eye followed by a vicious right cross. Dakin stepped in and ordered Seki to his corner, although the cut leaking blood did not look particularly dangerous from ringside." -United Press International		"Welshman Howard Winstone won a share of the vacant featherweight title Tuesday night by stopping Mitsunori Seki of Japan in the 9th round.
