Not since Mickey Walker oot-|. grew the 160-pound division and ’ gave up th*- crown to < ampalgn In ■ heavier leagues ha* there been an . undisputed, universally re< ogtjtoed j mlddl* weight king. But there'll be one tonight after | the scheduled U-round brawl at I the Garden between hardhitting Zale and his brilliant opponent. Fast-stepping Abrams, the bouncing bo'ean'a mate, is favored because of his whirlwind speed and unusual hoxlng ability. Moreover, Abram* has the advantage of youth, being 33—five years younger* than Zale from Gary. Ind. Abrsms. despite his weaker punch also is favor<-d becamte of his three nont It le victories over Hilly Hoose, who recently gave up the New York section of the middleweight throne. Zale. however. Is enjoying heavy KUpflnt along 4>th street becanse of his knockout punch and hl* stamina, coupled with the fact* that Abrams cuts easily aboM his tender brow* and may have difficulty lasting the 15-round route.
