Maxie Rosenbloom Faces Financial Hurdles After Title Struggle
Light heavyweight champion Maxie Rosenbloom faces a cash crunch as he has earned little since beating Jimmy Slattery for the title in Buffalo. The New York Boxing Commission demands he relinquish the crown if defeated by stronger challengers, while plans to pit him against Mickey Walker hinge on location and money. Walker, barred from New York, may require a nearby venue such as Atlantic City to lure crowds and secure purses.
