Former heavyweight champion Michael Dokes continued his comeback bid by knocking out James Pritchard in the seventh round of a scheduled 12-round fight at Madison Square Garden.
Dokes, 29, fought at 225 pounds, 50 less than when he started his comeback last December after a 33-month layoff. Dokes (33-1-2) scored his fourth straight knockout since starting his comeback. He lost the World Boxing Assn. title to South African Gerrie Coetzee in 1983.
