Archer lands title shot after chase for six years
Middleweight hopeful Joey Archer buys his chance at the title with a Madison Square Garden bout set for July 13 against Emile Griffith. Archer, 28, earned the shot by forcing Griffith to face him before Griffith met Dick Tiger, a result that left Archer in line to fight Tiger if victorious.

Archer Declines Short End For World Middleweight Title
Archer refuses to take a $25,000 offer to fight Griffith or Griffith’s opponent and fights for a genuine title shot. He states it’s a matter of principle to seek a title fight first, a stance backed by brother-manager Jimmie and Teddy Brenner, Garden matchmaker. He eventually agrees to a title bout with a $17,000 guarantee, deeming it a bargain for the chance to win the title.
