" Both boxers are now on the scene for their "rubber match" - third fight - in which 39-year-old Sugar Ray will try to wrest the National Boxing association (NBA) California version of the 160 - pound championship from 29 - year old Fullmer. Sugar Ray and his entour age of 14 motored the 80 miles from his training camp at San Jacinto, Calif., Thursday night and took up quarters at a mid town hotel. Fullmer did his training in Los Angeles. Fullmer 12-5 Favorite Each scored a victory in their two 1957 title fights. Robinson won the second on a fifth-round knockout with a left hook. Muscular Gene, a mink rancher of West Jordan, Utah, is favored at 12-5 to win again because of his age advantage, his persistent bulling attack, his stamina and his rugged ness. And it's "even money" that the bout doesn't last 13 rounds, no matter who wins. Each scrapper expects to scale just under the 160-pound limit at the weigh-in Saturday forenoon in the Olympic Audi torium. ": - - Evans, McKibbin Gain Catholic .
