PHILOSOPHY OF THE FIGHT.
what Object Was Attained ne the Amir
Endrdy

EndrdS
Just what result was attained by the recent
glove.fght is a puzzle.
Murphy proved he was all his importer
claimed, while Havlin showed his reputed
gamoness if not his reputed staying powers,
for his legs went in the last.
II Havlin and Murphy had been milling
for even n $500 purse there would have been
sense, bar q suspicion of n fake, II 1t had
been called q draw but dividing matters
when there was nothing to divide seems
childish. The men battled for 81, 900 q side
and the credit of victory. Not one cent was
up in the way of a purse, for tho club men,
like those who failed to follow up the Carney
Jimmy Mitchell fight, lost the chance Of Sec
ing a splendid contest by their p~ettishness in
refusing to even try TO get the men together
after Tuesday nights failure.
Murphy learned fighting in the Carney
differences between the good one and the
wonder. Murphy holds his left pretty we'll
up, ana his hands are always closed. Carney
holds his left low, as George Holden used to
do, and rested his hands by keeping them
open, except when letting drive. Carney,
too, was very careful about running around
and ducking. He knew better than Murphy
what terrible chances of being upper;cut
uouplng lays one open 10, ana now IaDle q
QUICKER is to go dizzy.
How either party consented to q draw is
another puzzle. Tom O'Rourke, Havlin's
hacker and able handler. has seen too much
fighting to be easily scared. Holske, Patsy
Sheppard. George Young. Barney Aaron and
old John Frazier, who helped Murphy in his
corner. ought to know when u man is able to
go on. 1t was a question of knowing when
one had enough. With Havlin's left eye
closed tight, his left hand gone, his shoulders
swollen and blackened and his legs giving
way, Murphy seemed to have things his own
way, but the Briton's stomach rebelled
against further torture. When Murphy had
forty-seventh ound. as Havlin himself ac-
knowledged as he clinched with him on the
ropes, exhausted nature would not let him
finish his opponent.
George Young thinks the fght was all
Murphy's N thinks the reports were all
prejudiced in favor of Havlin.
Maurice Barrymore, the actor, says Havlin
He thinks Havlin a stronger and more en-
during fighter, but says Murphy ought to
win if they fight again.
Brooklyn Jimmy " Wakely says Murphy
is the best and cleverest fighter he ever saw
perform. and thought him a sure winner. but
he hears that his hands were badly done for.
Jerry Fitzpatrick was o Havlin man all
sey's" pluck and endurance would have
pulled him through o winner.
Charley Norton. ex-light-weight champion,
says when Murphy In well he will trouble
any one Of his weight.
