Torres Eyes Clay In Future Heavyweight Plans
Jose Torres, defending his light heavyweight title Friday against Dick Tiger, says he has outgrown his division and eyes a future bout with Cassius Clay. He predicts trouble from Tiger but remains confident he will win. Tiger fights as a light heavyweight after dropping his middleweight crown. Torres also considers possible clashes with Floyd Patterson or Ernie Terrell as he weighs a move toward heavyweight glory.
