Valdes Feels Struggle To Reach Marciano Title Fight
Cuban heavyweight Valdes and manager Gleason express pessimism about securing a title bout with Rocky Marciano. After 11 straight wins, purse totals have been meager, with $42,468 earned across 12 fights and European tours boosting the take to around $320,000 but costly travel. Valdes hopes a May 2 Las Vegas bout with Archie Moore or a later title bid will finally yield a championship shot and bigger paydays.
