lence and q two-round knock
out Of Saxton. who once beat
Basilio out Of his crown on q
disputed decision.
Big Payday for Both
Win, lose or draw, the fight
will bring a big payday to both
men. Robinson engaged In his
usual bear-baiting with Pro-
moter Jim Norris before he
finally agreed to accept As per
cent. Basilio. originally signed
for rs per cent, ceded 5 per
cent to Robinson and settled
for 20 per cent to be sure Of
getting the shot. Each fighter
gets the same 1920 percentage
of the theater-TV, radio and
movie receipts. In the event OF
a Robinson defeat there is an
agreement for q rematch, as
usual.
The Robinson story is 50 well
known that 1t hardly needs re-
peating. The slick Harlem
dandy won the welterweight
title in 1916. took the middle
weight crown from Jake La
Motta in 1851 and lost it to
Randy Turpin in London, also
in 1851.

Styles Well Suited
AS compared to Robinson's
brilliant 14S fight career with

one no-decision bout, Basilio's
past is undistinguished. In 70
fights he is 51-I2-7. Robinson
