Three days later, at Toots Shor's restaurant in Manhattan, a battery of publicity men escorted tieless Rocky into a room filled with cold cuts and sports reporters. He and ex-Middleweight Champion Tony Zale signed a contract to fight for the title on June 9 in Newark's Ruppert Stadium, Rocky's guarantee...
