Proposed Rule Would Benefit Boxing Champs
Floyd Patterson would gain immediate benefit from a proposed NBA rule change on title defenses. The NBA World Championships Committee would let a champion face any top 10 challenger within six months instead of only the top six. If no fight occurs in six months the champion would still face the No 1 challenger within 12 months after winning the title.
