Solons Frown On Battle Of Max And Enzo
New York June 20. The New York State Athletic Commission frowned on the planned light heavyweight title bout between Maxey Rosenbloom and Enzo Fiermonte at Madison Square Garden for July 19. The commission warned the Garden that, if brought for sanction, the fight would be disapproved because Fiermonte is a young challenger with no recent top status in the area. Bert Stand, secretary, cited Fiermonte’s inactivity and lack of main bout status.
