HENRY AKINWANDE, the 27-year-old London heavyweight, is to box for two titles in the space of six weeks. Akinwande will meet the Western Samoan, Jimmy Thunder, for the vacant Commonwealth crown at Lewisham on 18 March followed by a return fight with Germany's Axel Schulz for the vacant European title in Berlin on 1 May. Both titles were given up by Lennox Lewis, now the World Boxing Council Champion.
