JOHN [. NEVER KNOCKED OUT.
Former Champion Denies that Any
Blow Ever Sent Him Down.

The appearance of John L. Sullivan at
the Lyceum this week In his monolgue
has given rise 10 a number of arguments
and disputes Some of those have arisen
over the question whether Sullivan was
ever knocked out, or even knocked down.
Sullivan denies emphatically that either
Of these untoward incidents ever marred
his career in the ring. and history seems
to bear him out There was much TO do
when ne fought Charley Mitchell at Chan
ully. France. on March 10, 1SSS, over the
claim that Mitchell. who was much lighter
than the American. had knocked him
down. Sullivan resented this at the Lyce-
um last night. In speaking of the sub
ject, he said:
Il was never knocked down in my life
1t was claimed that Mitchell turned the
trick, but I really slipped, as the ring
was little more than a mud-puddle be-
cause of the heavy rain before and during
the fight, and its a wonder we didn't
both fall a number of times. Corbett did
not knock me down. II was simply
collapse on my part. I Just sank 10 the
floor, and everybody knows 1t; and 7 was
not knocked clean off my feet, which is
what you really mean when you say a
man is knocked down"
