Light Heavy Champ Smart, Hard Puncher —Flowers Scrap Recalled. By <loc WilMams NEA Service Writer NEW YORK Feb. 11— Jack Delaney, world's light heavyweight champion, lias the fastest right hand —and the fastest fighting mind—in the beak-busting business. Into his routine of fighting are woven all the turbulent trickeries, savage subtleties and animal artifices that made Kid McCoy what he was back in the olden days—the craftiest man in the craft. You are asked to make a menta® note of this in pondering the consequences of the Canadian's first Important start as a contender for the heavyweight championship this against James Maloney of Boston here Feb. 18. Delaney figures to have two chances of winning from Maloney. Arrayed in the order of I heir seriousness they arc as follows: One is to outsmart him. The other is to out sock him. Or, as an alternative, both. Makes Swift Analysis Delaney’s general procedure Is to make a. swift analysis of the man in front of him, detect a weakness in his armor and then make the most of it. That's how ho knocked out Paul Berlenbach, Tiger Flowers and more lately, Bud Gorman. Admittedly it required no parlor magic t.o congeal the Teutonic caress of Berlenbach; he was wide open for a right hand and got it. With Flowers it was different, and I think the story of how Delaney maneuvered into position to knock out the Negro is one of the classics of ring strategy. Flowers, a southpaw, respecting the power of Delaney’s right hand, fought with his gloved fist held high against his jaw. Flowers is a body puncher. The section of Delaney’s body that seemed to offer the best target for Flowers was tire left side in the kidney region. Flowers began taking stiff shots at tills target. The blows did Delaney no good physically, but in another way they won the fight for him. Delaney noted every time Flowers landed a stiff wallop with his right, the left, moved by the impact of the blow, would bounce back, exposing the jaw by about six incitesAt tire end of the first round of his first fight with Flowers Delaney sat in silence in his corner while Pete Reilly, his manager, put him on the toaster. “Say, move around more out there. Don't let that guy hit you so much with his right hand. That’ll weaken you.” Delaney answered: “Don’t worry, Pete. The next time he hits me there I’ll knock him out.” The hell rang. Delaney purposely exposed his left side to Flowers’ attack. Delaney took a hard sti: right, watched the gloved left hand that had been protecting Flowers’ jaw move out of position and then sent over the one punch ho had been waiting so crashing right-hander that knocked the Dixie parson out.
