Maxim, MaHhews
SEATTLE, Dec. 28—>.41 -The man
who lias hollered loud enough to be
heard in the Halls of Congress with
his demands for a Joe Maxim-Harry
Matthews lightheavyweight boxing
title bout has turned down such a
fight.
He is Jack Hurley, cagy manager
of Seattle’s pride and joy, 29-year
old Harry (Kid) Matthews. Mat
thews has been knocking out or
dusting off the nation's lightheavy
weight boxers with monotonous reg
ularity in 1950 and 1951. And with
each triumph has come a new de
mand that Maxim, the champion,
meet the lethal-fisted Kid.
The International Boxing Club of
New York has been the target of
most of the often-times acrimonious
statements about why a title-bout
couldn't be arranged.
The Department of Justice was
even approached by some lawmakers
with a demand the IBC be charg
ed as a trust illegally controlling
boxing. Little developed beyond the
words, however, until last week.
Then IBC’s matchmaker, A1 Weill,
offered a title bout for Feb. 22. He
originally offered Matthews 15 per
cent of the gate and 15 percent of
the television receipts. Hurley roared
like an angered manager that the
offer was 'inadequate and insult
ing.”
‘‘Who does he think he is?” Hur
ley asked of Maxim, "Matthews?”
‘ Maxim couldn't draw flies.”
Weill countered with an increase
to 20 percent of the gate and TV,
but with an ultimatum that Hurley
sign by the end of this week “or
else.”
‘Date, terms and other dictates
connected with Maxim offer re
jected,” Hurley telegraphically snort
ed in reply Friday. "Matthews will
continue his independent campaign,
your ultimatum notwithstanding.”
Later he told the Associated Press,
however, that he hadn’t slammed
the door all the way shut.
"There probably will be a Max
im-Matthews fight, maybe. But we
just won’t fight on Maxim’s terms,”
he said.
