FIGHT BETWEEN SAYERS
AND BRETTLE.

This exciting match between those men, in which Sayers
staked £4oo'to £2OO, came off this day on the home circuit,
and was decided, after fifteen rounds, in fagour of Sayers.
It will be borne in mind that it was a bye battle, which in
no way interfered with the gallant Tom's claims to the
ChamPionship. In addition to the stakes Bob Brettle laid
the backers of Toni £2OO to £2O that Tom did not lick him
in ten minutes. This of couree added somewhat to the ex-
citement in connection with the affair, but by the knowing
ones it was booked as won by the Birmingham lad, whose
quickness on his pins was well known. Both men were in
extraordinary fettle, and Brettle was not more than 41b.
lighter than his opponent. lie was trained near Ashbourne
in Derbyshire, in company with Jem Hodgkiss and
Bob Travers, while Tom Sayers had taken his breathings
at Newmarket, under the Watchful eye of Harry Brunton.
Both men arrived in town on Sunday evening. Brettle
took up his quarters, as usual, at Alec Keene's, Three
Tuns, Moor-street, Soho ; 'and the Champion was domiciled
at 'Harry Brunton's, George and Dragon, Beech-street,
Barbican. The'backers of Sayers offered 2to 1 freely, but
3 to 1 was commonly demanded.

The fight for the ChampionvLip, between Tom Sayers
and the pnknown, for £2OO a-side, will take place on the
15th of NovenTher.
