Hempsey gave all of sixty pounds to Willard and Sam laingford weighed only 145 when he gave Jack Johnson three kinds of fits. Ja< k Blai kliurne. now trainer of Ixiuls, gave more weight away than Rockefeller did dime*, and so -lid Gans and Walcott And Mb key Walker wasn't sparing with th>- poundage when he fought Max Hchmellng. And what did Joe Walcott. a welter, do to Joe Choyhiskl. a heavyweight good enough to lick Johnsn' Nothing, except knork him stiffer than a plat eT aspic.
