Return Fight Between Canzoneri and Berg Planned
London Aug 31 Jef Dickson proposes a world lightweight title return bout between Tony Canzoneri and Kid Berg at White City. He estimates a gate of 200000 to 250000 pounds with 35000 to 60000 spectators. Dickson offers Canzoneri 50000 plus training expenses. Berg would take about a third of that. Profits could reach 100000. Even if not staged, Dickson enjoys talk as a potential boost after recent losses. Berg, a Whitechapel idol, has the color and following promoters seek in these lean earnings times. Critics feel something phoney occurred since the Chicago Me fight.
