McLarnin Favored To Defeat Canzoneri In New York Bout

Chicago May 5 Barney Ross, former welterweight and lightweight champion, predicts Jimmy McLarnin will beat Tony Canzoneri in the 10 round New York Madison Square Garden bout.

He notes Canzoneri won his title from Lou Ambers, while McLarnin beat Canzoneri in 1934 and later regained a crown elsewhere. Swid Ross and Sam Flay discuss the likely outcome and potential post bout plans.
