last season put him back in stride again

chink King will come back and be as

COrbett Gave Ring
Most New Blows
Gentleman Jim" Inven ed Majority of the
Scientific Moves Used in Pugilism
at Present Time

Occasionally in the dispatches fror
of boxers are read reports of new blows
that are invented by this or that fight
er TO be used in his coming battle with
the fellow for whom he is training. But
when it comes to the day OF the mill the
men slam away at each other in the
same old way, and nothing that sug
gests anything like a new move mate
rializes.
The enthusiasts on the fistic game
have become tired of reading of these
alleged new swats,, which only exist in
the minds of some overzealous young
journalist, anxious to tear off something
out of the ordinary for the readers OF
his paper,
As a matter of fact, there have beer
few, if any, new blows sprung on the
public since the advent of Kid Mccoy s
corkscrew and .Jib Corbett's g hook. All
the other so-called blows said to be Of
more recent discovery have proved to
be nothing more OF less than the old
wallops used generations back under
different names.
Some OF the old-timers even claim
that the hook was not new when jim
Corbett launched il in his memorable
battle with John l.. Sullivan They said
that Jack Demsey used the same blow
in nearly al of his fights half dozen
years previous to the Jacksonville mill
In this our ancient friends are mis-
taken. however Jack Dempsey used q
regular swing, and it was almost a
duplicate Of the haymaker of the pres
ent day. But Jack sent il around with
such wonderful speed that it looked
neater and more like the hook.
Gorbett figured out this blow while
training for his bout with John l.. He
realized that the straight left for The
face could be blocked with apparent
ease, owing 10 its bring in such com
mon nse, SO he conceived the idea OF
hooking the forearm as he let fly will

This motion caused the blow to twist

! have the same effect as a right swing
20 the point of the jaw.
| Corbett landed this blow on Sullivan
repeatedly and got away without a re-
turn. Every time he started the blow
John would prepare to block straight
left as he rushed in to meet the shifty
Corbett and Jim IS left would describe
semi-circl around the big fellow s
right glove, crashing against his jaw
with marvellous accuracy each time.
Occasionally, as the fight progressed
Corbett used the left straight, and by
mixing them up in this manner he had
John guessing all the time.
Later on, while training for Charley
Mitchell at Mayport, Fla, Corbett i'm
proved upon the hook, and in the fight
he gave Mitchell terrible lacing In
stead of being on his toes all the time
as in the bout with Sullivan, Jim set
himself nearly every time he let drive
! at the Britisher, and his hitting was
effective throughout.
He finally dropped Charley with a
left hook in the third round and when
he arose to his feet again terrific
right to the jaw put him down for the
| final count.
Another thing that Corbett invented
was the perpendicular guard. Previous
to this time the fighters used horizon
tai parry, and it was not difficult for
Il swift opponent to get over it, The
old dtimers evaded swings for the Jaw
by either dueking or stepping back.
Corbett inaugnrated the present
method of turning his hand so that the
knuckles were toward the approaching
blow and directly alongside of the
| Jaw. IT is perfect block for swing
as may be seen in any contest between
clever boxers.
| 1t is an indisputable fact that jim,
Corbett invented most of the scientific
moves used at present in pugilism. Kid
Mccoy and Tommy Ryan added to Cor
bett g discoveries and other skillful
men launched other improvements.
/ Griffo, the erratic Australian, was
the first boxer who evaded swings by
stepping inside of them and coun-
tering straight TO the face or body as
he stepped 10. If he slipped inside the
swing went harmlessly over his head
and he had two free blows to plant
wherever he pleased to put them.
Bob Fitzsimmons is credited with
having invented the shift. owing TO his
defeat of Corbett BY that move. Old
timers. however, will recall that George
La Blanche, the marine. used the same
move and the same shift blow years
previous to the Corbett- Fitzsimmons
