Rickard and McCracken are understood to ave promised that they will stage this match and some say they even have agreed to pay part of the fine against the Garden. Before Rickard and McCracken! can stage their bouts they will have to go through the motions of organizing a club and will have to apply for a license at the boxing commission.
