had better stick to their chosen profess

Looking over the long list of men
who desire to oppose Johnson in the
ring. he finds that there are only two
who stand any chance Of getting on a
match with aahe champion, and. they
are Sam Langscrd and Al Kaufman.
There are many experts who believe
that the former would stand an excel
lent chance Of defeating johnson
should the pair ever meet. In fact. he
Is the only man at this moment who is
fitted physically and scientifically to
meet the champion In a twenty-four
foot ring. Langf6rd is conceded to be
the most formidable hitter and quick
est finisher known to the ring since
Robert Fitzsimmons' freckled mauleys
became so brittle he was afraid to
take punch at even an inflated bag.
Although Langford would concede
forty pounds in weight and almost FIVE
inches In height, which would seem to
be an iDsnrmountable handicap, vet
he is willing to 60 into the ring with
the big Galveston fighter. As johnson
also would have q great advantage In
reach and Langford Is not proof
against a left hand jab. It can be seen
that the smaller man would be likely
to receive terrific punching before
he would be able to get to close quar-
ters and turn loose tts own Queens
