Ex Champ Tells of Three Bribe Offers
Former lightweight champion Ike Williams testified to boxing investigators that he was offered totaling 180000 to lose 31 fights including two title bouts. The schemes were routed through Frank Palermo who advised using his own judgment. Williams named offers of 100000 to lose to Kid Gavilan in 1948, 30000 to lose to Freddy Dawson in 1949, and 50000 to dive against Jimmy Carter in 1951.
