Joe Louis Seeks Quick Rematch as Title Fight Looms
New York reports say Joe Louis plans to defend his heavyweight title in September after defeating Billy Conn. He may cancel golf plans to fight Tami Mauriello, who accepted an outdoor title shot. Louis netted about 625000 before taxes and expenses, leaving uncertainty about his remaining earnings. Conn retires from fighting and warns against facing tougher opponents, while promoter Jacobs laments Conn’s missed movie payoff. Mauriello is seen as Louis next challenger, though Jacobs fears the match may underperform. Louis eyes further ventures, including a Harlem restaurant with profit sharing.
