Boy still eying world title<\/p>\n
JAKARTA (JP): Flyweight Boy Aruan's defeat by world title-
\nholder Hiroshi Kawashima of Japan will not weaken his spirit to
\nkeep struggling for the title, he says, \"even though this means
\nthat I will have to start from scratch again.\"<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old Indonesian was floored by Kawashima in a
\ntechnical knock-out just one minute, 56 seconds into the third
\nround of a world title bout sanctioned by the World Boxing
\nFederation at the Ryogoku Kokugikan stadium, Tokyo, on Wednesday
\nevening. Boy received US$20,000 as the loser.<\/p>\n
Boy's style of bending his body while boxing made it difficult
\nfor him to handle Kawashima, who kept locking Boy's head with his
\nhands, according to Boy's manager Setijadi Laksono. Laksono said
\nthe referee was not fair, often stopping Boy's attacks.
\nKawashima, on the other hand, expressed discontent over Boy's
\npunching him twice after the referee had stopped the bout. (arf)<\/p>",
