RUHLIN'S CHANCES.
Commenting on the Jeffries- Kennedy
20 and the coming Jeffries- Rubin
match, the Enquirer says:
II is little wonder, that Jeff put
away a man of Kennedy's ability in a
couple Of rounds. Fitz can whip all
the Kennedys who ever came down
the pike. Jeff can do the same trick
to Bob Fitzsimmons. Therefore. we
shall have to put the champion back
I'm his old place at the top Of the heap
and 1t does look as though, with JET
fit and well, that Gus Rubin has a
Tremendous job on his hands in his
prospective battle for the heavy
| weight title. Jim .Jeffries is certainly
a wonderful fighter. He is the giant
of the prize ring, and Is built In pro-
portion TO his size. His massive frame
looks strong enough to withstand any
kind of punishment, and his two good
hands and arms have strength and
force enough to knock down anything
in human form. If Gus Rubin is the
greatly improved man they say he is
and Jeff the same Jeffries of old, the
coming battle at San Francisco should
prove to be the fiercest in the history
of the prize ring. Rubin will fight
hard from the word go. 1t will be
Jeff's place to go out and set the pace
and Rubin may be able to make II
strong defense, but after there are Il
few mix-ups the real work viii begin,
and from tbat on il will he the fight Of
the century.

snapped up with eagerness by the
management of the Brooklyn club,
