punches of Sydney welter Lou Williams at Brisbane and
knocked him out in the fifth round.

19-year-old
ex-amateui
eventually caught up with William's
and
knocked
him
ou
with a smashing right to th.
chin.
Williams had - been down to;
four counts in the fourth round
and
one
of
six
seconds
jus'
before the knockout
Skinner
took
everything
Williams threw
in the
first
three rounds, as
he
walked
up,
^banking on
his
heavy
artillery and trying
out
the
same punches that
Williams
used on him.
The tide turned in the tourtr
round
when
Skinner
caughi
Williams coming off the rope;
and nailed him for a count of
nine.
Up to that stage
Williams
speedy
evasion
had
Skinnei
floundering
often,
but

flurried.
