Liston Asks
For Release
From Pact
PHILADELPHIA VP)
Sonny Liston, the No. 1 chal
lenger for Floyd Patterson's
heavyweight title, yesterday
threatened to quit the ring
unless Joseph "Pep" Barone
'steps out as his manager.
"I'm asking Pep to give up his
contract with me so I can get a
title fight," Liston said.
Patterson several times has
said he won't defend against
Liston until the Philadelphia
heavyweight divorces himself
from some of the people the
champion claims have a finan
cial interest in Liston.
A U.S. Senate subcommittee last
winter said Frank "Blinky" Pa
lermo and Frankie Carbo were
undercover managers of Liston
and described Barone as a front
man for them.
Liston, winner of 34 of 35 fights,
says he won't allow Barone of
Allentown, Pa., to sell the con
tract.
"I want Pep to give it to ma
for nothing." the Negro fighter
asserts. "rll get another man
ager who can help me land a
fight with Patterson."
Liston insists that if Barone re
fuses to give up the contract, re
portedly worth $125,000,.he'1l quit
fighting.
