WBA May Suspend Rematch Plan For Liston Patterson
Emile Bruneau of the WBA says any jurisdiction permitting a Liston Patterson rematch should be suspended. The contract would force Liston to grant a Patterson rematch or forfeit a portion of his purse until paying $1 million to the ex champion. Dr. Charles P. Larson echoed the stance, calling a rematch possibly the worst outcome for boxing. Liston won the crown from Patterson in Chicago last September.
