Youth Versus Experience Heads To Walcott Charles Bout
The long awaited heavyweight title clash at Comlakey Park pits Ezzard Charles of Cincinnati against Jersey Joe Walcott of Camden, N J. Charles carries age and weight advantages yet Walcott’s ring craft and a year off may turn the tide. Both camps warn of a late rally as Charles seeks to neutralize Walcott’s speed and seek a decisive finish in the late rounds. The bout, set at 6900 seats with Cemlaki Park as home for Chicago, draws strong betting but uncertainty remains over the outcome.
