FAMOUS FIGHTERS
HAVE PET PUNCHES
All Men Adopt Peculiar Style
and FaVOrite Blow to
Bring Knockout

Every pitcher has a cute curve which
he picks up to puzzle a batsnan in
pinch, every slugger can kill a certain
curve. every race horse is a ficnd for
soft or hard footing to flash his feet
ness, every grappler has a favorite grip
and every fighter likes to fire his tape
bound fist TO the mark in certain
groove to score his knockout.
The pet punch Of a pugiist has often
been so predominantly powerful in his
ring tactics that IL has led to a success
fully executed russo on the part of foe
which resulted in his downfall. The
entire system of many fighters is built
on their particular punch. They fight
with the object of battering across the
intervening space between them and
their opponent, past the guard, this
favorite blow.
Jack Johnson, the present occupant Of
the heavyweight throne, relies on one
wallop TO stretch his foe senseless on
the floor. He fights a slow. steady bat
tie watching like a hawk the chance
to crash his glove with terrific impact
on the vital spot.
johnson waits for his foes TO lead
He encourages them to do so prior to
the instant he intendes to cleave them
with the clip which will make the
referee do his mathematics. He drew on
Burns in Australia, and Just as soon
as he arose from the rosin. after being
floored by Ketchel. no staggered, and
Stanley thinking he had his rival grog-
gy. flew in to finish him and was rip
ped on the jaw with that right hand
appercut and knocked frigid. Three
front teeth went out the instant that
Stanley did.
The hardest hitter in the American
ring Is Stanley Ketchel. the Michigan
marvel. but he fights in wild spurts and
frequently clever fighters have been
able to dodge the deadly missiles which
Ketchel whips at them. Again Ketchel
is always hitting and guard is neces-
sarily drawn wide open. leaving n. path
to his jaw for the punch of an op-
ponent
Battling Nelson bores in until he is
leaning against his man and then he
pounds away at the body. the kidney
and renal plexus being the spots he
likes to batter best OF all. The new
champion. Ad Wolgast. seems to have
a combination. but Wolgast will dot on
a favorte dart with his fist before he
has fought many moro battles.
There was the old sorrel top. Robert
Fitzslmmons. He planked his glove
against fellows ribs and there flash
ed throughout the land the news Of
a new spot which was more susceptible
the solar plexus, than the jaw or the
heart, TO a blow. Bob felled Corbett
with that blow. and he used it on
Sharkey. II was his best bet.
