CONCEDED 80 POUNDS.

Fitzsimmons conceded about go
pounds to Rubin and this in itself was
a serious handicap. But as the result
showed, Fitzsimmons was equal to the
task he had set himself and won out
with that terrible solar plexus blow
which, whenever it landed, shook RUN
lin from head to foot
From the word go the men started
in with hurricane-like force. Both
men were wild at times, but Fitzsim-

aggressor. He landed some hard
straight lefts on FitzsI4nmons' face and
swung bis right en- the body and head
with fearful force. Several of these
blows staggered Fitzsimmong, but none
o. them landed on the mark, as Fitz-
simmons was too shifty At times
both missed swings with their hand.

NEW YORK, August 10.-Bob Fitz-
simmons. Of Australia, but now an
American citizen, met Gus Rubin, the
Akron, Ohio, Giant, tonight, before
the Twentieth Century Club at Madi-
son Square Garden, and won by
knocking the Ohioan down and out iii
the sixth round.
Before the fight and for some weeks
past there have been many reports to
the effect that Fitzsimmons was too
old to cope successfully with his
younger opponent. 1t was argued that
Fftzsimmons's well known knowledge
OF the game and his capabiiity of hard
hitting would not be able to counter
balance the youth and strength, as well
rs the recently acquired ring tactics
81 the Ohio man.
Tonight, however, all this has been
hanged. Fitzsimmons did the trick
cleanly and cleverly 1t was fierce
and bloody battle while it lasted and
at times it looked as il Rubin would
get the better of the oder man, but
Pitts. nrnons at the proper time cut
loose with his fearful body blow, which
finally snuffed out the Ohio boxers
light.
The betting all along had favored
Fitzsimmons, many wagers at the rate
Df 100 to so on lanky Bob being made.
Tonight. however, at the ringside
there was a flash Of Rubin money
which forced the odds to take turn in
Ruhlin's favor at the rate of 100 to so.
This state of affairs did not last long,
however. and by the time the men put
up their hands for the opening round,
they were equal favorites, even money
being the rule.

The five tramps who were arrested
