used In his fight with Jeffries will be good
enough for Munroe. The sailor. however,

II Is said that ShArkey intends to have a
big bet on his chances when he enters
the ring.
AS for Munroc, he Is training with the
care and caution that would indicate that
te chance OF his life has come. and he
does not intend TO spoil 1t II he can pos
sibly help IT,
Since his bout with Mccoy Munroe has
picked up many new tricks which he In
tends 70 use on the sailor There IS no
better ring general than Mccoy, ana
there is no doubt that Munroe viii ben
cit by his tactics,
That match for the worlds heavy
weight championship Will be the outcome
Of the meeting is certain. While knock
out Is expected 10 terminate the meeting
between the sailor pugilist and his miner
opponent the fact that both men are
on their feet at the end of The SlA ROUNDS
will not prevent Champion jim Jentics
from making match with the one hay
Ing a decided advantage over the other.
II the men are on even terms NJ the
conclusion Of the fray, Jenrles VIII

Just to prove that he Is determined IN

pIonship the huge Californian Will not
name any conditions that would prevent

which Is the better man.
ITS my opinion that &C. bout viii not

that the bout will 40 the limit. Under
such conditions there IL another ques-

come up ! will say that there will be a
fight FOR the championship, whether It
goes the limit or not, providing sharkey
and Munroe give the public mtlsiac-

"For instance, II the bout goes six
rounds and one man has decided ad-
