Walcott Pursues Tune Ups for Title Defense
Holyoke reports Joe Walcott, the heavyweight champion, says he should be allowed to pick his own challenger for a title defense. He names Harry Matthews or Rocky Marciano, then Ezzard Charles, as possible opponents, arguing the champ deserves tune up money. The New York Boxing Commission named Charles as top challenger, while promoter Jim Norris plans talks in Miami. Walcott insists he will defend the title at the proper time and would fight Matthews, Marciano, or Charles if needed, to support his family.
