New York, Jan. Gould Jack
easy as he did Tommy Burns? The
sports think not.
One thing is certain. that Jeffries
never was made groggy in a bout. He
has been cut up. but he never was
reeled to the ropes In his career.
Billy Madden says that Johnson
could lick Jeffrles and come out OF
the battle unmarked.
Il picked this black fellow five
years ago." said Billy last night in
our offices while talking over the go.
Il had Denver Ed Martin out In Cali
fornia five years ago." continued Bill
ly, "and thought he was world beat
er. This fellow, Johnson, met Ed and
defeated him easily In 20 rounds.
When they met again he knocked Mar.
tin cold In two rounds. / saw then
that he was the fastest big man In
the world, and told Gus Rubin so
when l came back.
Gus saId 1, you'll never be
champion of the world. There's col
ored man out In California who can
lick you and Jeffries and the whole
bunch of heavies and you won't lay a
glove on him Rubin laughed. Mar
tin was a baby In his hands the night
OF the fight. Johnson was so fast
that Ed looked as though he was nail
ed to the floor
"Yes, sir; | think that this fellow
could lick Jeffries at any time. IL
JEFF didnt think so he'd get out and
fight himself Why did he ever draw
the color line? He fought Peter Jack
son, Armstrong and Griffin, but as Tor
Johnson guess the big fellow knows
Il thing or two"
Well. that's the opinion OF Billy
Madden.
Another cid sport thought Jim JET
fries was too much like a bear tc
hurt. He declared that Jim has two
sets of ribs and that 1t Is simply I'm
possible ID hurt him.
"Why, hc shook off the punches
the big fellow landed on him just like
a human roulette wheel tossed off its
freight at Coney Island" said A. o.
S. "Jeff was too big for any one
TO hurt" continued the old sport,
and he would have been champion
until old Father Time jumped In with
a slam"
Another fight fan declares that Jen
was not as dangerous as most OF the
fans have him painted.
why. he boxed 20 rounds with
Joe Choynsli, and the best he got
was draw, while Jim Corbett knock
ed ChOynSlSi ont In 81 rounds DC
went 25 rounds with Sharkey and
then later won a 20-round decision
and Sharksy was no terror. Jim Cor
bett boxed rings around the big fel
low for % rounds and lost by lucky
punch
If Corbett could win by big mar
Gin in 23 rounds. why couldn't John
son, who is stronger. taller and just
as clever. go longer than that and
beat Jeffries?"
Well, it's a question at any rate
worth settling.
