New York Fight Board Teeters Over Dempsey Wills Tunney
The New York Athletic Commission debates whether Jack Dempsey should meet Harry Wills or Gene Tunney this year. It sets a two week deadline, but predictions say Dempsey may not fight either contender this year. Tex Rickard faces possible strain if Dempsey skips. The board could declare the title vacant, though public humor limits action. Dempsey expects labor day activities in Michigan City, Indiana.
