MONTREAL (CP) — Yvon Du. relle retained his British Empire light - heavyweight championship Wednesday night in a savage bat- tle with South Africa’s Mike Holt who failed to come out of his cor- ner for the ninthround. Holt ap- peared to collapse between the eighth and ninth rounds.-
It was such a terrific slugging match that from the sixth round on it appeared one or both would drop from exhaustion.
,Pit Audette, a second for Holt, said the South African couldn’t breathe between the eighth and ninth rounds. ‘
Holt sat on his stool, his face went. white. His head fell back and rolled about and manager Piet Lourens tried to revive him. It Was useless. ‘
CROWD ROAM
When he failed to come up for the ninth round, the crowd of about 6,500, which had been yell- ing throughout the bloody scrap, let out a roar.
The fisherman from Bale Ste. Anne, NR, and the South African tore into each other from the start. ,
Holt was sent,down for a seven count in the third round and dropped Durelle for n rid-count "in the eighth. - ,, '
Durelle was bleeding freely from a cut over his lefteye dur- 1‘ ing the last few rounds. Holt was '1‘bleeding somewhat about the
. mouth and nose.
It was Durelle's ruggedness that saved him burn a possible defeat. He took everything Holt had to offer and came barging back for more, landing himself with solid blows when it ap peared he was in real trouble.
Holt’s showing was a distinct surprise to many. He was scored ahead slightly on points by all three judges through the eighth rounds. .
3 The heat in the forum was ter- ‘ rifle and. plus the hot glare from '- .the lights, seemed to take much out of both fighters.
Holt. repeatedly clipped Durelle with sharp lofts and rights—~11 real two-fisted attack—«but he was al- ways in danger of walking into one of Durelle‘s haymakens.
For the eight rounds. before the fight ended in a technical eighth-round knockout, the scor- ing by the judges was: . ‘
Judge Bobby Leitham 37-36 for Holt; Judge Johnny Gow 36-32 for Holt and Judge Rene Oulmet had it 37-32 for Holt.
The Canadian Press score-card had it 36-32 for Holt. , “Durelle weighed 173% to Holt’s
9. .
In his dressing room after the fight, Holt said he bruised his left hand in the third round and that it pained him so he couldn‘t use it to full advantage the rest of the way.
He said he found trouble breath-

for the ninth he couldn’t get off his stool, scarcely a bi e to breathe. '
Durelle, in his room, said Holt was the toughest puncher he has ever met but he felt he was fig- uring the South African out and could have won by the nth round it the fight had gone that far. .
The paid attendance was an— nounced at 5,025, the gross $21,000 and the net $18,000. ‘ ,
Durelle had a shade the better of the‘. first round, and lost, the second by azalight margin. In the third, he began to unload his heavy stuff, driving Holt off and then st'aggeringhir’n with a left.
Yvon followed with a left and right in succession and Holt went down in his own corner. The South African took a seven~counti
Holt hung on and Was in trouble again when the third round ended. _
Referee Maxie. Berger said Holt, on going down, apparently forgot that the mandatory eight count had been waived and was coming up at seven when'Durelle tagged him again. Mike didn‘t go .down this time but desperately grabbed Yvon and hung' on.
Holt came back in the fourth
even, break. He took the the fifth, \dniving Durelle to the ropes and opening the, cut over Du- relle’s eye. .
Durelle took savage punishment in the ’sixth‘, Holt landing lefts (and rights to thehead almost pt will” for several seconds.
The seventh was again Holt's. He drove Durelle off, then shot over a sharp right then sent Du- relle down in his own corner. Durelle struggled “up before ref- eree Berger could begin counting. By that time both fighters were solweary they hung on repeatedly but ‘ Durelle always seemed to have something in reserve after taking Holt’s weaker blows.
Both seeming arm-weary, they pounded away in the eighth with- out any, particular advantage and the crowd, which had warmed up to the South African’s brilliant fighting, was suddenly amazed to see Holt collapse on his stool.

“I knew I had him after the fifth round,” said the 28-year—old fisherman from. Bale Ste. Anne, N.CB.,_ “but I didn’t think I’d be able to‘ finish him before the "llth or certainly the 10th.”
Referee Maxie Berger awarded the bout to Durelle when Holt was unable to answer the bell for the ninth. _
“I will say one thing for Holt," Durelle said, fingering a one-inch cut over his right eye. "He’s the hardest puncher I’ve ever been in against.” ' -
“And he (Holt) fought real good battle,” chimed id Chris Shlaban, Durelle’s coo-manager. ' '

“After the seventh, Durelle told me he was losing the strength in his arms. But I could see Holt’s reserve was dwindling even faster than my boy’s.” ..
Trainer Pat Colovito swabbed the‘cnt over Durelle’s eye .and said Yvon “fought a great fight, but Holt sure surprised me.”
“We ran into a fellow with pow-er we never expected to find. It was a lottougher than we ex- pected. But I had a felling it would end that way.",
Referee Maxie Berger, former Canadian lightweight and welter- weight champion, said:
"It was the greatest fight I ever saw. Holt was the underdog, but he was just great. And he just didn’t have the strength. Durelle ~—well, you saw it."
