IN 1891. The first round for about two
minutes was one of the prcttiest exhl-
billions of sparring ever seen In Boston.
Both men missed several times. and
once Fitzsimmons, missing a blow. fell
on Choynski's shoulder. Bob was play
ing for Joe's stomach. Joe ducked a
hard blow and landed a good one in

to Fitzsimmons's face. which sent his
head bobbing back. \ couple OF sec

Joe made Bob miss "A couple and then
