Hoffman's view on boxing's heavyweight scene and Schmeling draw
Ancil Hoffman, director of Max Baer’s boxing operations, urges caution on Braddock vs Schmeling. He doubts arthritis alone canceled the match, citing low ticket demand and a strategic push to sidetrack Schmeling due to Jewish influence and potential North American gate needs. Hoffman notes promoter Mike Jacobs may favor Braddock’s status and Baer’s trouble after losing his title, while praising Baer as a champion despite past volatility.
