OPINIONS EXPRESSED.
The Knowing Pugs" Tell What They
Thought.

New ORLEANS. Sept. s.-Mike Brady
of Lawrence, Mass, who won quite a
bit of money on Corbett, changing from
Sullivan at the last minute, said:
at was simply a repetition of the
Fitzsimmons- Dempsey battle in the
same ring. Corbett Is larger edition
and Sullivan was not in 1t. He could
only stop Corbett's blows either on his
face or belly. l think Sullivan has
been placed ON his proper level as a
fighter 10y Corbett, who is one OF the
cleverest men | ever saw stand IN a

put all that on Sullivan to win 81 200.

walked away from the ring with tears
in my eyes. l could not bear to stay
there and see Sullivan slaughtered.
No, there IS no doubt OF Corbett's su-
periorty. He fought fairly and was
very much the better man."
Steve Brodie lost $1,000 in this city
and New York. He said last night:
81 lost enough money to build house,
but can't complain, for 1t was lost on
| the level. Corbett simply made IA
| sucker of Sullivan. The big fellow
was never IN 1t at any stage of the
game. / believe that Corbett could
whip Sullivan of old, Sullivan of the
past and the present. l take my hat
| Oft TO the new champion"
Bat Masterson of Denver said: 1.-THE
battle resulted just as ! sand 1t would
when the match Was made. Sullivan
was always an oyer-reted man, and /
| cOntended that he was such since be
| had any reputation as fighter. 1t
was proved last night that he could not

| Fitzsimmons or JIM Hail. middle
weights, could whip him. Those saw
age Sullivan rushes and the awful right
hand swing did not get there, as they
never do with clever, shIfty left handed
fighters like Corbett."
! Harry Cornish of the Boston Ath-
letic association said: "Corbett played
with Sullivan like a cat with a mouse.
! Sullivan could not thrash him. 1t was
sure thing in the fifth round"
Howie Hodgins of Boston, who won
about Sl.l00 In this city and Boston,
said: "Corbett jabbed mis- left into
| Sullivan's face and stomach whenever
he wished. Corbett kept the big duffer
moving all the time. | think Sullivan
