JOHNNY COULON
DEFEATS CONLEY
116-pound Champion Gets Decision
Over frankie After Twenty
Hard Rounds.

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. .3-Johnny Cou-
lon and Frankie Conley boxed twenty
rounds before the Pacific Athletic Club.
at Vernon. with the Chicago bantam so
far out in front at the finishing bell
that he could not have been caught with
wireless wave.
The champion retained his title with
nothing more serious than a split upper
lp. and a tangle Of sandy hair to re-
mind him Of his hours work against the
little Kenosha bulldog.
Coulon was the master from the mo-
ment that he danced forward to answer
the opening gong until one hour and
twenty minutes later, when Referee
Charley Eyton grasped and raised Cou-
Ions right arm in token of victory
II is but framing justice in scant words
to say that CouIon had a commanding
lead in each and every one of the twenty
rounds. II the worlds 1l6-pound title
holder lacks one thing that a champion
should possess it is a knockout punch.
Countless times Johnny planted his right.
with full shoulder power behind Il
squarely to Conley's chin. with no visible
effect Not a knockdown featured the
championship clash. One round was but
a repetition OF the other, with CouIon
piling up points faster than the ring
side critics could register them.
Upon two or three occasions Coulon
appeared tired from his own exertions,
but IL such was the case, Johnny fresh
ened quickly and maintained his stin
pace.
For frankie Conley It can only be said
that he fought his best, but his best is
not enough to win the bantam-weight
crown. Barring a chance knockout blow,
Conley never had peep at victory.
The box office receipts for the fight
were $3.50. Jem Percy and Bobby Mon
roe boxed six rounds TO draw in the
first preliminary. Louie Rees won a
decision over Kid Dalton in
