New York — Sugar Ray Robinson faces another setback as a postponement or cancellation could block a hoped bout with Carmen Basilio over theater television rights. The ring great, nicknamed the runout king, says he will only fight in top condition, a stance that has driven at least 12 schedule changes driven by illness and injuries.
