Veteran fight manag- - hrs and trainers told The Amster­ dam News that Patterson's maa- * ager, Cos D’Amato alienated pro- ’ moters■. managers and some box ing commissions when Pattersou .was champion. Emile Bruneau, chairman of the World Boxing Championship Committee, reportedly said that any state or country accepting a return match betwen Patterson and Liston should be suspended from the body. He went on to say “that Patterson should earn a re­ turn bout. The chairman reportedly said 7. that the contract is binding and J- stipulates that Liston must fight Patterson or turn over portions -„of his future purses until Patter . -eon ia paid a million dollars. He .further states that Litton has no • ,w«y of escaping unless Patterson becomes ill or refuses to fight -T U Malting Plans Promoter Tom Bolan, president ; of Championship Sports, Inc., i said plans are underway to stage the return contest in March or April. No site has been picked, according to the promoter, but the fight may be held ^Balti­ more or Las Vegas, Nev. Patter­ son will resume training after the holidays. Champions have always re­ quired their opponents to sign a binding return contract. It haa been a practice for the challeng er to place his purse or part of his purse in escrow until he ful­ fils his contract. Several boxers have been known to turn over a percentage of their contract to the tlte holder to get a bout. It is the general belief in the boxing circles that Patterson be­ came unpopular because of D’Amato’s actions. When Liston stopped Patterson in one round, boxing began writing Patterson’s obit, but the ex - champ said he was determined to win back the crown. Liston was given a title shot because Patterson felt he deserv­ ed one, although D’Amato was against the bout and said so pub­ licly. Patterson felt that Liston was not given a fair chance and gave him a crack at the crown.
