Deskin and Durocher draw fire and boxing influence in Las Vegas
WBA official Jim Deskin and baseball figure Leo Durocher share fierce drive and public feuds. Deskin, long tied to boxing in Nevada, helped bring the 1970 WBA International Convention to Las Vegas and may seek renewed WBA leadership. He also runs the Nevada State Athletic Commission and has been a key promoter of heavyweight bouts here. Deskin's bowing to sport and business roles shows deep Vegas sports roots.
