Tunney Gibbons Bout Looms As Possibility Grows
New York March 31 The prospect of a light heavyweight title bout between Tom Gibbons and Gene Tunney at the Polo Grounds June 12 received new momentum after Eddie Kane Gibbons manager delivered an ultimatum to milk fund promoters over Harry Wills. Kane said signed Wills contract must be produced by noon or negotiations would stop. Promoters expect sanction issues due to weight differences and Kane added Tunney has a 35 percent gate share. Rickard declined to bid, unable to match deForest offer.
