Sugar Ray Seeks Return Conflict New York (U.R) Sugar Ray Robinson flatly rejected sugges tions of retirement Friday and asked for a return bout with Joey Maxim. Promoter Jim Norris said, "I'm certainly interested in stag ing a return bout, perhaps at Chicago." However, the trend of nego tiations at the International Box ing Club indicated that Maxim would defend his light heavy weight crown against ex-Middleweight Champion Jake Lamotta at Detroit before tackling Sugar Ray again. The Detroit bout would be in September. In his first statement to the press since Wednesday night's heat-collapse at Yankee Sta dium, Sugar Ray said, "I certain ly don't plan to retire on Wed nesday's performance. No sir, I still have to be convinced that Maxim can beat me." Standings COAST LEAGUE W L Pet.
