No Fancy Stuff About Firpo, but He Sure Is Real Bull, Willard Declares
LUIS NOT AS GREEN AS k SOME RING CRITICS THINK m AND HE CAN STAND MUCH Former Champion, Who Writes From Experience, Compares South American With Jim Jeffries When Rugged, Unscientific Boilermaker Lifted Fitz’s Crown, By JESS WILLARD. Former Heavyweight Champion. mS LUIS ANGEL FIRPO a second Jim Jeffries f I don’t propose to answer that question, although I worked up a tremendously intimate .and comprehensive acquaintance with Firpo one evening in July. But I offer it to fight fans as a fertile subject for speculation.
It is true for a certainty that the talk about Firpo as he faces his championship battle with Jack Dempsey is exactly on a line with the dope on Jeffries when he tackled Bob Fitzsimmons. Said Jeff Lacked Polish The experts objected that Jeffries was too green and lacking In polish. They had to admit he was strong and game, but they didn’t allow him a chance against the experienced title holder. But everybody knows what happened Firpo is a big, tough fellow who thrives on hard blows. Your fist simply bounces'off him. In the seventh round of our fight, for instance. I shot two hard ones in succession straight to his jaw. I
Firpo-Dempsey On this page today is the first of a series of articles by Jess Willard. former heavyweight champion, sizing up Champion Jack Dempsey and Challenger Luis Firpo. It gives a good in sight of the Argentine's ring tactics. Williard met both men and took the count before each. Therefore, he knows their real punching ability. His article today expresses his opinion of FI,-pc.
pressed the button for him. all right, but it didn’t turn out the light. He seemed to come on stronger and stronger every round. His Blows Sink Deep And when Firpo hits, it's like a blast from a siege gun. He puts a hole in you. That is just what he does. An opponent may be clever, but Firpo takes a lot of the cleverness out of him when he sinks one of his punches. He sapped my strength in our fight by a hail of kldney punches. When he lands one it rocks you all over. There isn’t any fancy stuff about Firpo. He is not a nice looking boxer. But in an awkward sort of way he is clever. Don’t forget that. Firpo’s greatest asset, I believe, is his ruggedness. He is the kind of fighter who can let his opponent wear •Imself out and hreak his hands ounding on him. And then Firpo can finish him. Right Hand Is Deadly Incidentally, he is handiest with his right hand, and it is a deadly weapon. The critics keep referring to his inexperience. That is not to be denied, although he appears to be making quick improvement. But it is a mistake to underestimate him. Firpo isn't a popular personality, but if you want a fighter, that's what he is. I don’t say Firpo will win from Dempsey, but he has more chance than most people think. Take it from me that he is a real wild hull, he has been fighting steadily without any soft living and he Is ready to do his best with everything to gain and nothing to lose.

CHAMP LYNCH OFFERS POOR FIGHT AT AURORA By Timet Special AURORA, 111., Sept. 1. —Joe Lynch, world’s bantam champ, still had his crown today, but his prestige was badly marred. In a ten- round no-decision bout here last night Harold Smith of Chicago outpointed the tltleholder In eight out of the ten stanzas. The lads .fought, at official bantam poundage, but the title did not change hands because It was a no-decision affair. Lynch was off form and newspaper men agreed Smith deserved the honors.
FISTIC EXPERTS SORELY GUESSED RIGHT ON WILSON i Johnny Badly Scarred by Greb and Harry Lifts the Middle Crown, By HENRY FARRELL, United Press Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, Sept. I.—Johnny Wilson lived for almost three years eus middleweight champion of the world by exercise of great caution and Friday night he passed out the same way. Wilson never took a chance as champion, and he was so careful in the first real defense of his title that he lost a fifteen-round decision and his crown to Harry Greb, the Pittsburgh fighter. He Was a “Defeatist'* The Italian apparently figured befere the fight started that he had reached the end of his sad rrign and he fought as a loser. Ten thousand fans cheered the verdict and also voted it a rotten fight. Wy.son was given the edge in only two of the fifteen rounds, the first and the thirteenth. Had he shown a little aggressiveness and had be been smart enough to see the effect of the body punches that he landed through the whole fight, on his opponent. Wilson might have retained the title. Greb was so tired from the ninth round on he could hardly keep his hands up. but Wilson did just what Greb wanted, clinched and held. Harry Not Up to Form It was a slow, uninteresting fight. Greb. weakened no doubt by making ICO pounds, failed to put forth the stunts that have made him almost invincible among heavier opponents. He fought enough to win by the widest of margins, but he disappointed the crowd. Wilson was a sad looking figure at the end of the fight. His beak was swollen to twice Its size and was a crimson blotch. His cheek* were puffed and his eyes almost closed. Official figures published today showed that only 6.114 paid admissions' went through the gates. The receipts were $24.1 CO. Wilson drew 37*2 per cent and Greb per cent.
