DeMarco is a slugger with plenty of heart and stamina. Basilio lost a close decision to Gavilan in a title attempt. The challenger, a Syracuse fa¬ vorite, has never been knocked out or floored. This should be a thriller. DeMarco vs. Basilio TALE OF THE TAPE Compiled by Not Fleischer (The Ring) TV GUIDE A-47
