Ezzard Charles fight with Jimmy
Bivins at Griffith Stadium on Au-
gust 2 is the first of the elimination
series to find successor to the re-
tired Joe Louis as world heavy
Weight boxing champion. An
nouncement of the fight, to be held
under sponsorship of the Variety
Club, came at the same time that
Abe Greene, president of the Ma
tional Boxing Association, an
nounced that hereafter fights be-
tween leading heavyweights would
be considered as part of this elm
ination series.
Charles more than Bivins is con-
sidered a real possibility as next
wearer of the heavyweight crown
although Bivins is listed among the
heavyweight leaders. Charles also
is logical contender for the light
heavyweight title now held by Gus
Lesnevich, who also is top rated by
those picking out possible future
heavyweight king. In fact most
boxing experts think that the heavy
title eventually will be decided IN a
bout between Charles and Lesne-
vich.
Announcement of the Charles
