Benny Bass filed suit against manager Phil Glassman alleging orders to “lay down” to inferior opponents and seeking release from a December 24 1925 contract with over three years remaining. He claims Glassman sought separations, underpaid earnings, and promoted himself while transferring control to Jake Preedman amid training conflicts. Bass, a longtime champion, held titles including the featherweight and junior lightweight in the late 1920s.
