JACK JOHNSON AND
SAM LANGFORD To
FIGHT IN LONDON
Two Negroes Will Battle Before
National S. G. for 20
Rounds.

LONDON, Jan. IA fight between
Jack Johnson, the heavyweight cham
pion of the world. and Sam Langford
before the National Sporting Club is
now assured. The battle will take
place on May "a. The fight will be for
twenty rounds.
The club originally offered johnson 81. 200
for a battle with Langford, but owing to
the fact that johnson is now the champion
the purse will have to be increased consid-
erably. 1t was originally proposed tina the
fight a k place the latter part OF Febru-
airy. but In view of Jobnson's theatrical en-
gagements In Sydney the tint of the fight
will probably be either during Derby week
or on the even of the Suburban.
Langford made a big hit on his first APP
pearance here. While the fighting fans
recognized that the contest will look un-
equal, owing to Johns superiority ia weight
and size. they think that Langford has the
gameness and cleverness to put MP a bet
ter fight than Burns did against the cham
pion.

feat rather than a boxing one. He went
on with the small but hard hitting Battling
Hurley, of Passaic. Mango has consider

Hurley gave him such a drubbing in the
first round that he decided it was foolish.
not to say reckless, for him to continue
business with the Battler.
So in the second round, when all kinds
of jabs and swings were coming his way,
Mango stopped fighting. 1t was a pure
case of quitting cold, for he did it very
coolly.
Hurley was originally billed to fight
Johnny Dwyer, but a bad hand prevented
Dwyer fulfilling the engagement. Then
Tommy Carey was secured, but he failed
