Braddock Louis Talk Hovers Over Boxing Offer
Joe Gould, Braddock's manager, tentatively considers a $400000 offer to fight Joe Louis in a 12 round no decision bout at Atlantic City's Convention Hall. The clash would conflict with Braddock's MSG garden title bout with Max Schmeling next June and a Braddock Lewis showdown is also under discussion. Gould's hesitancy keeps the plan in doubt while Johnston is abroad.
