New Tunney In No Hurry For Bout With Louis
New Tunney is in no rush to face Joe Louis with talks of a 1940s era showdown. Jay Louis Nova will sail to England for four round exhibitions against Tommy Farr before any title plans, with trainer Ray Carlen delaying the plan to boost Nova’s chances. Nova, likened to Tunney, shows size reach and grit but must refine defense and rhythm while avoiding risk and waiting for wiser guidance.
