fight "Of course you know that is pretty hard matter
to say just what your chances with fighter whose tao
ties practically unknown. I think will win Why
shouldn't 1? If didn't have confidence enough to
back himself he should stay out of the squared circle But
at the time while have reason to believe will win
out do not by any means underestimate my opponent.
There is thing about this fight which ought to take,
and that is it will be fight and nothing else Neither Of
overly scientific with the gloves and therefore
will just have to go to it,
Weeks when did not have very much to say ooh,
I'll after the fight who is the winner Mr. Gotch will
prove hard nut to crack and realizing this, going to
work hard to get in shape"
