Clay backs Liston bout despite NY commission opposition
Cassius Clay’s backers plan a title defense against Sonny Liston promoted by Intercontinental Promotions. The New York Athletic Commission opposes the fight and calls for sanctions, while promoters argue the bout is part of the original price and would move Clay toward a future title defense. In other sports, Cincinnati clinched a double win in a nine innings, Jim O’Toole won his 12th decision, and manager Bill McKechnie, battling chest cancer, was hospitalized but received a homecoming gift from the Reds.
