Clay Liston return fight back in play despite commission opposition
Cassius Clay's manager moves ahead with plans for a title rematch with Sonny Liston, hoping for a venue in Louisville or Las Vegas and a big VTV sale. The New York State Athletic Commission opposes sanctioning the bout as ABC-TV had offered 1.2 million dollars for home television, which was rebuffed. The commission urged boxing bodies to reject the fight over concerns tied to the Miami Beach bout and Liston's ties to the promoter.
