Jimmy Murriy, who promoted the Marciano-Cockell fight, said he was "amazed" that, Robinson had been matched with Castellani so early in his comeback. "Much too soon," Murray said. Rocky will whip him." Several fight experts who have hung around tenderloin gyms for years here say that Robinson seems to have trouble keeping his gloves up after two rounds of sparring. Latest odds have Robinson a 10-6 shortender, tlje first time he has been an underdog for an im portant fight in his life. But be that as it may, he has packed them into Dolph Thomas' gym, drawing bigger crowds as a has been than when he was training here in 1B52 to defend the mid dleweight title against Carl "Bo- bo" Olson. Time was Robinson was a hard guy to corner and he didn't like to talk much. Now he is very con genial with the reporters al though he has refrained from making any rash predictions. "I'll just do the best I can," he said, sticking to the modest script he unrolled when he arrived here from New York two weeks ago. However, Manager George Gainford continued to proclaim a knockout victory and acnaea the Castellani camp. "The only way we could get Castellani to fight him was to convince Al Naiman, his man ager. that Sugar Ray was through." Gainford said. "Castel lani has always been afraid of Ray." The winner presumably is in line for a shot 'at Olson's crown. Gainford said that he is planning to have Robinson fight a couple of warmup bouts in Honolulu first if he beats Castellani.
