CORBETTS RING GENERALSHIP
WAS TOO MUCH FOR HANION.

twelfth round He fought gamely then,
but it was the end. He was beaten when
that round was over. Twice before the
sixteenth round, the last, the referee
begged Hanlon's seconds to take him out
of the ring. They refused and the game
little California fighter stayed by his work.
The crowd that saw the fight was ex-
ceptionally large for a featherweight ex-
hibition. About $4,000 was taken in.
Half of this goes to the fighters. OF
their share rs per cent goes to the winner
and the balance to the loser.
After the fight Hanlon said that Cor
bett was the best man in the world and
that no one in his class could beat him.
