    Did Pep or any of his handlers ever admit to throwing the Lulu Perez fight? Anyone have any information here?

    Follow up question to the above, what would the point have been in throwing the Perez fight? It couldn't have been much money for it, and Willie didn't need help in getting a title shot. Any ideas?
