BOTH THE MEN ARE NOW FIT
DIXON HAS TRAINED HARDER THAN
FOR ANY OTHER FIGHT.
McGovcrn stu Hr. Two Pounds Of
Flesh tn Full on pcfore He
Gets to Weight.

New York, January 5.--Georgc Dixon
Is in great shape for his twenty Ave round
encounter with TORY McGovern at the
Broadway Athletic club next Tuesday
night. He has been training harder than
ever before to get into condition for this
contest, and when he meets the young
Brooklynite, he will be prepared to put up
one OF the old time battles. Dixon has had
no difficulty In reaching the weight, lis
pounds, and today he announced that he
was we'll under the limit.
II is expected that McGovern will ex-
perience little difficulty in training doAn
10 the required figure. He is few pounds
heavier than Dixon when out OF training.
and, as he carries very little superfuous
flesh at any time, only long runs and
sweats will have any effect on him. Nc
Govern, however. says that there is no
fear of his losing his forfeit money on ac-
count of overweight. Both fighters realize
that they are about to take part In the
hardest battle of their career and they are
leaving no stone unturned that will fit
them for the fray, Dixon is doing his
work among the pines at Lakewood, \. j.
He is living in a small cottage just outside
the village and there he does all his gym
nastic exercises.
A large crowd OF sports" went to Nc
Governs training quarters on Jerome ave-
nue. today and after seeing the little
Brooklyn fighter go through his course of
hard training, pronounced him 10 be in the
best OF shape for the fight McGovern said
he felt much stronger for the fight than
for any he has taken part in for some
time. McGovern weighed 100 pounds,
which IS Just two pounds over the weight
at which they are to fight. Dixon has
been under weight for over five days,
Weighing in the neighborbood Of III
pounds.
McGovern still remains the favorite Ia
the betting at 10 to aud in some in
stances 2 to J. but no heavy bets at thess
odds have yet been recorded.

two companies into one has Great
ed great deal Of additional
