the corridor with a policeman.
but the fight, like the Aragon-
Goldstein fight. didn't come off.
Cohen challenged Sergt. Will
liam Foreman to take off your
badge" but the policeman kept
it on.

jury that Aragon summoned him
to his home December 7 and Of
fered him $500 to lose the San
Antonio fight which was can
celled at the last moment when
Aragon was found to have a
fever.
