Theme Hospital or Rollercoaster Tycoon.

Was doing some research and came across this article, which will be an interesting read for at least one poster on here

HARADA WINS WORLD TITLE

19-year-old Japanese Flyweight Kayoes Kingpetch In Eleventh

Nineteen-year-old Masahiko (Fighting) Harada, ranked only No. 10, became the new flyweight champion of the world by sensationally knocking out Pone Kingpetch of Thailand in the 11th round of a scheduled 15-round title encounter. Near pandemonium swept the excited crowd of 10,000 spectators at the Kuramae Kokugikan Sumo (Japanese-style wrestling) arena in Tokyo when the 7-3 favourite 26-year old Pone took the full count on his knees in his own corner at 2 mins. 59 secs. of the 11th round, writes R. Y. Koitabashi.

Tokyo-born Harada (19 yrs, 6 months), the youngest boxer to win the world flyweight crown and the second Japanese to cop a world boxing title, regained for Japan the title which Yoshio Shirai lost to Argentina's Pascual Perez on November 26, 1954 and Kenji Yonekura, Sadao Yaoita, Mitsunori Seki and Kyo Noguchi failed in their attempts to wrest.

The return clause in the contract calls for Harada to defend the title against Pone in Bangkok within 90 days.

The WBA approved this bout as a title match under certain conditions, because Harada is not a logical contender among the first six ranked flyweights.

It was Harada's 27th win, 11 inside the distance, against one loss in his two-year professional boxing career. His only defeat was to world ranking bantamweight Mundo Esparza of Mexico in June this year in Japan.

Realising that his only hope to win was to take the initiative from Pone (making his fourth title defence), Harada, an employee of a rice dealer, planned to outrush his opponent from the opening gong and he did just that.

He relentlessly attacked Pone with a fast combination of a flurry of lefts and rights to the head and body to the finish, as he took every round - although Thai referee Vongse Hiranyalekha and judge Nat Fleischer did not think so.

At the end of the 10th round, the referee scored it 49-47; Fleischer 49-42 and Japanese judge Koichi Takada 50-38, all in favour of Harada.

As the shifty footed Japanese carried his steady attack he forced Pone to retreat in every round, frequently to the ropes where Harada pummelled him with a two-fisted assault.

Harada bled from his nose in fourth when some of Pone's punches found their mark, but it did not seem to bother him.

In the fifth round Pone suffered a bad cut over his left eye which hampered his sight and bothered him the rest of the fight. "He could not see after that," his manager, Thongdos Intradat, said after the fight.

In the final 11th Harada drove Pone against the ropes and battered him with lefts and rights to the face and as the champion backed to his corner, Harada mercilessly smashed hard lefts and rights to the body and head and Pone slumped down to his knees to be counted out.

"I prayed at the time that he would not get up," the jubilant Harada said. "It seems like a dream. I still can't believe that I won the World championship."

Thongdos, speaking for his dethroned champion, admitted that Harada was the better boxer. "Harada is a good boy. We lost fair and square."
