Sharkey In Good Shape For Fight Clinches Readiness
New York June 27 Primo Carnera may expect to unnerve Jack Sharkey with a long title defense in Madison Square Garden but the veteran fighter is in top condition. Dr Vincent Nardiello says Sharkey is in better shape physically and mentally than a year ago and he looked sharp in training including two rounds with Hans Birkie. Carnera wrapped up sparring in Pompton Lakes while Sharkey prepared to box today. Expert notes and gate predictions suggest a strong crowd though not as large as early estimates. Odds favored Sharkey at 6 to 5 as battle between the giants nears.
