Pugilism - And On A Sunday Too -- Say Lands a left to Tissong's Nose. Yesterday afternoon the Ring Sports Club held a boxing tournament at the Trocette Cinema, Tower Bridge Road, London. The holding of Sunday afternoon tournaments is a revival of a Pre-War practice. Then one could be sure of seeing a fight any Sunday afternoon in a building known as "The Ring" in Blackfriars Road. The original "Ring" was destroyed during the War. Yesterday, Alby Tissong, Non-Official featherweight Champion of South Africa, beat Antoine say of Paris. Critics consider he was lucky to gain this Victory on points. May 12, 1952. (Photo by Paul Popper, Paul Popper Ltd.).
