IBC Attorneys Weigh Appeal to Judge’s Monopoly Ruling
New York defense attorneys for the Jim Norris boxing empire studied appeal options after U S District Judge Sylvester J. Ryan dissolved the International Boxing Clubs and permanently barred Norris and Arthur Wirtz from major bouts. The 13 page verdict, read Monday, cited interlocking directorates between Garden Corp. Chicago Stadium Corp. and the IBCs as evidence of monopoly. The dissolution, effective next Monday, ends their control of title fights and prompts a plan for promotional competition between the East and Midwest. A final judgment will outline the enforcement machinery.
