Edwin L. Dooley chair of the New York State Athletic Commission leaves on vacation amid criticism over endorsing the Joe Frazier versus Buster Mathis world heavyweight title bout. Promoter Teddy Brenner defends Dooley and predicts strong advance ticket sales for the Garden show on March 4 pairing the Frazier Mathis fight with Griffith Benvenuti. Brenner argues public acceptance makes it a world championship clash and cites past sanctions by the WBA to defend Dooley’s decision.
