The British Lightweight Title tight between Larkhall’s Alex Dickson and challenger Steve Boyle is sure to rouse major interest In Glasgow. The tight was postponed when Dickson went down with a virus last year, but he will be restored to good shape torthis one. Boyle, who rather blotted his record last time out with some unsavoury tactics, is a confident challenger, and there is unlikely to be much in it by the Iinish, with the holder probably starting tavourite.
