worlds lightweight champion, at the Ma
booked to go six rounds.
Cans justified the judgment of ring
sharps by stopping the Britisher after the
third round was two minutes and twenty
two seconds old.
In this round the Baltimore mulatto had
scored a knockdown which kept Robson
on the floor for nine seconds. and when
Spike gained his feet he was reeling and
bleary-eyed. A short but powerful right
handler on the jaw, delivered an instant
later. crumpled Robson TO the floor again.
He might have gone on again. but seeing
the boy outclassed and virtually a wreck.
Referee Jack McGuigan waved Cans
back. picked UP the Britisher and carried
him 10 his corner. Cans victory was de-
cisive and clean-cut.
Cans was as spry and light footed as a
youngster tonight. He outboxed, out
fought and outgeneraled Robson at almost
every stage He played his left contin-
ually on the Englishman's nose and
mouth. but he did not forget his right. for
that hand worried Robson by stiff upper
cuts TO the chin or hooks and swings to
the head
In the second round Il was plain that
Cans could end the bout whenever he
desired. He chased Robson around the
ring and the latter several times barely
escaped from hazardous situation.
Robson did but scant execution with
his left in the first two rounds. for Cans
stood him off well. Spike did better in
the early part OF the third. when he ran

right to the stomach and kidneys This

you may lose some fat as a result, YOU
Will lose your health with It.
Cases are numerous of fat people be-
