Lahouari Godih
To Fight Busso
By JACK CUDDY
New York (IP) Algeria
born Lahourai Godih,. light
weight champion of France,
brings his world-title .cam
paign to Madison Square Gar
den Friday ( night for a TV
fight with contender Johnny
Busso of New York.
Their 10-rounder will be
televised and broadcast na
tionally. Unbeaten in the last three
years, 29-year-old Godih seeks
his 21st straight victory in his
second United States start. He
impressively outpointed welt
erweight Larry Baker at
Washington, D.C., April 18.
Nevertheless, the betting is
at "even money" because of
Busso's apparently superior
punch and accurate hitting at
long range.

vina Warren, in 1863.
