(JUNE 3) Super middleweight ASA SANDELL (3-2-1) returns to the

Since fighting Ali, Asa has hardly been idle. She moved to
New York in January and has trained daily at Gleason’s Gym with
trainer Lennox Blackmore. "I’m really looking forward to
fighting a good opponent, I’ve been working hard every day and
am in great shape. After losing to Ali, I’m preparing for a
victory June 15," Sandell said by phone from New York. "A Ring
of Their Own’s" Arnie Rosenthal has also said that he is working
out details to televise the fight on a delayed basis as a part
of the upcoming series that will begin airing July 31st.
