LAS VEGAS (AP) — Roberto Du
ran wears the pride of his accom
plishments for everyone to see. He
tries to cover his disgrace with a ver
bal blanket.
That blanket, however, has grown
ragged with use.
Thursday night, outdoors at the
Mirage, Duran, 38, will try to put a
final bright patch on his crazy quilt
career by beating Sugar Ray Leon
ard.
“Hey, Sugar Ray Robinson (the
late welterweight and middleweight
champion) and Roberto Duran are
the two greatest fighters ever to step
into a ring,” Duran said.
“I get tired of people asking me
about New Orleans.”
In the eighth round at New Or
leans Nov. 25, 1980, Duran, who
had beaten Leonard on a close but
unanimous decision in 15 rounds six
months earlier at Montreal, waved
his right fist in resignation and mut
tered, “No mas.”
“After the New Orleans fight, I
won two more titles,” Duran said. “I
beat Davey Moore (for the World
Boxing Association junior middle
weight crown) and Iran Barkley (for
the World Boxing Council middle
weight championship), but all that
people talk about is ‘no mas.’ ”
‘The two words became part of
boxing’s lexicon. They were used in
routines by late night television hosts
and standup comics.
Duran, who had ruled the light
weight division for eight years dur
ing the 1970s and was known as
“Hands of Stone,” was ridiculed as
“Belly of Jelly.”
He claimed at the time he suf
fered stomach cramps.
Now he says, “I’ll tell the press af
ter I beat Leonard why I quit.”
Leonard, 33, has said, “I think I
just frustrated him.”
That is the generally accepted the
ory.
Leonard, who had gone toe-to-toe
with Duran at Montreal, used his
speed and had Duran lunging and
lurching at New Orleans. In the
round before Duran surprisingly
quit, Leonard taunted and mocked
the king of machismo.
The victory, however, was a hol
low one for Leonard, whose pride
has been fired by five world cham
pionships and his position as the
premier fighter of the 1980s despite
three retirements.
“I was never given credit for that,”
Leonard said. “I beat him fair and
square. He was the star. He got more
play than I did. It was Duran’s
doing, not Ray’s doing. That’s what
ticked me off.
“That (Duran’s act) robbed me of
my accomplishment.”
Leonard is a 2-1 favorite to win
the rubber match.
Spurs topple
Golden State
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — David
Robinson scored 22 of his 28 points
in the second half Wednesday night,
including two free throws that broke
a tie in the final minute, as the San
Antonio Spurs defeated the Golden
State Warriors 121-119.
Robinson’s free throws with 41
seconds left broke a 114-114 tie. Af
ter a Golden State turnover, Willie
Anderson’s 10-foot jumper with 15
seconds left made it 118-114.
Terry Cummings, who scored 25
points, added a pair of free throws
with 10 seconds left, making it 120-
114.
After Sarunas Marciulionis’ 3-
point shot brought the Warriors
within three, Anderson hit a free
throw to seal the victory, extending
the Warriors’ road losing streak to
13 games dating back to last season.
Golden State is 0-9 away from home
this year.
The Warriors were led by Chris
Mullin with 31 points.

Irish still in title picture
NEW YORK (AP) — Notre Dame coach Lou
Holtz said Wednesday that the fourth-ranked
Fighting Irish could make a “strong case” for the
title by
title by beating top-ranked Colorado in the
Orange Bowl even if No. 2 Miami defeats Ala
bama in the Sugar Bowl and No. 3 Michigan
beats Southern Cal in the Rose Bowl.
According to Holtz, the biggest argument in
Notre Dame’s favor is its backbreaking schedule.
Colorado is the ninth bowl team the Fighting Ir
ish will play in their 13-game season.
“We’ve had as big a mountain to climb as any
body in a long time,” Holtz said via speaker
phone from his vacation home in Orlando, Fla.
“We played four teams who were ranked in
the Top 10 (at the time of the game) and we were
ranked No. 1 for 12 straight weeks. ... But we’re
not going to campaign for No. 1. This is the last
time I’m going to talk about it.”
Colorado coach Bill McCartney, who attended
NBC’s Orange Bowl news conference, knows his
11-0 Buffaloes can clinch the national title by
beating Notre Dame. But he thinks Notre Dame
may need help to win its second straight title.
“If Miami beats Alabama and Notre Dame
beats us, I’d have to go with Miami because they
beat Notre Dame,” McCartney said. “However, I
agree with Lou that Notre Dame played the most
difficult schedule.”
“Coach McCartney was in a lot of big games (as
an assistant coach) at Michigan,” Holtz said.
“And Colorado has done well in big games this
season. They beat Oklahoma, they beat Nebraska
and they beat a pretty good Illinois team 38-7.
“Let’s face it, no team is involved in games of
this magnitude very often. We didn’t have that
much experience last year when we won the na
tional championship.”
Colorado, the only major undefeated team in
the country, will be playing for its first national
title.
“This is a new experience for us,” McCartney
said. “It would he easy for us to say, ‘We’regoing
to the Orange Bowl,’ and be satisfied with that.
But that’s not going to happen because we realize
what’s at stake.
“This is a very special time for Colorado. We
haven’t been in this position before. The entire
state and the city of Boulder are electrified.”
The Buffaloes have dedicated their season to
Sal Aunese, who was their starting quarterback in
1988. Aunese died of cancer on Sept. 23 after
watching Colorado’s first three games from the
sidelines.
“Sal wrote a letter to the team the day before
he died, and the last words were, “Bring back the
Orange Bowl,’ ” McCartney said.
“Notre Dame is the class of college football,”
he said. “They recruit the best student-athletes
and they demonstrate great character.... To beat
Notre Dame is the ultimate conquest. It doesnt
get any better than that.”

‘Super Mex’ checks into Seniors
m
KAANAPALI, Hawaii (AP) —
Lee Trevino knows what to ex
pect in his debut on the Senior
PGA Tour this week.
“Pm going to be nervous. I’m
going to be pressured. I’m going
to be trying too hard,” Trevino
said before a practice session for
the Kaanapali Classic, the last of
ficial event on the 1989 Seniors
schedule and Trevino’s first as a
member of the over-50 set.
His arrival on the Seniors scene
—Trevino was 50 last week — is
one of the most heralded since
the Tour started 10 years ago.
“Lee is one of the most popular
and accomplished players in the
history of the game as well as one
of the great gate attractions,”
PGA Tour commissioner Deane
Beman said. “I expect him to
have an immediate and positive
impact on the Seniors Tour.”

needed for the start of a new ca
reer.
But his first start is not what he
had expected. Wife Claudia and
their baby daughter are not with
him. They remained in Connecti
cut to be with Claudia’s mother,
who is recovering from surgery.
“I’m here by myself,” Trevino
said. “I’m not used to that. It’s
distracting. I’m trying to keep my
mind on what’s going on here this
week, but it’s tough.”
And he attempted to play
down the importance of his de
but.
“This is just one tournament,”
he said. “All the other guys know
I’m here and they’re going to be
gunning for me.”
He talked of
problems
Trevino has been preparing
for the Seniors for nearly three
years. He left a job as a television
commentator to return to a play
ing role. He’s lost 20 pounds. For
three seasons, he’s played in tour
naments in which he was not
competitive, playing simply to

on the Bermuda greens of the
Royal Kaanapali course. “1
missed eight putts of five feet or
less yesterday (Tuesday),” he
said. “I haven’t played on Ber
muda greens in five years.”
He said he was looking beyond
this first start to the beginning of
the 1990 Seniors schedule in Feb
ruary.
“I’m looking forward to that
more than I am this one,” he said
“I expect to play well this wed
but if I don’t, it’s nobiedeal,I
won’t be too disappointed.
“What would disappoint me is
if I play four tournaments in Ftl>
ruary and don’t win, that would
disappoint me.”
Trevino, a Hall of Famerwho
won two U.S. Opens, a pair of
PGAs and scored consecutive
British Open triumphs in 19/1
72, playea 20 times on the regu
lar tour this year, but now wil
concentrate on the Seniors Tour
“About all I’m going toplayoa

NFL: Oilers had extra timeout
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Na
tional Football League has told the
Pittsburgh Steelers that referee Ben
Dreith’s crew mistakenly awarded
Houston an extra timeout in the first
half of the Oilers’ 23-16 victory last
Sunday in Pittsburgh.
Dreith didn’t record the third and
last timeout called by the Oilers after
Bubby Brister completed a 4-yard
pass to Merril Hoge on a third-down
play with 1:14 remaining in the half
and Pittsburgh leading 10-7.
Hoge did not get out of bounds
and the clock would have continued
running if Houston had not called
time out, thereby leaving the Oilers
little time to mount a potential scor
ing drive after the Steelers’ fourth-
down punt.
Afterwards, Dreith told a pool re
porter that official timer Lou Rossi
stopped the clock on his own and
that the on-field officials did not
stop the clock because there wasn’t a
timeout.
