New York Board Warns Pat Galento Over Lewis Bout
The New York State athletic commission warned heavyweight Tony Galento that action could follow if he fights John Henry Lewis on July 26 in Philadelphia. The warning cites Lewis refusal to defend his title against Tiger Jack Fox and the commission’s rule against any New York licensed fighter facing Lewis until he accepts a challenge. Galento’s attorney said the fighter would proceed, noting a May 13 contract with promoter Herman Taylor. Joe Jacobs, Galento’s New York manager, asserted the Newark Nightstick would honor the Lewis bout. Tahiti note appears unrelated.
