Fighter Finds Happy Hunting In Detroit
DETROIT AP Jake La Motta wonders why someone didn't tell him before about this unstaked claim. Detroit was a crackerjack boxing town with big payouts yet fighters earned little. La Motta, 22, Bronx middleweight, headlines a rematch with Sugar Robinson at a packed arena with a $20,000 gate. His Detroit earnings since January nearly $40,000, rivaling Hank Greenberg’s home run haul. He lacks top ranking but thrives by knocking out lighter opponents for big paydays, about $46,000 for knocking down weaker foes.
