c EVEN times have Jack johnson
and Joe Jeanette battled. Four
of these were no decision af-
fairs. Once the referee rendered a
draw verdict afteS ten rafting
rounds. Once Johnson was declared
the winner in fifteen rounds. Once
Jeanette earned a decision on a

Jeanette has never been knock

victory over him, Joe has lost to
but two men-Sam Langford and
Sandy Ferguson. After losing to
the Chelsea Joke Jeanette stop

and Langford have clashed so many
times to an even break that the
record books have been unable to

I F the above dope doesn't make
Jeanette worthy opponent for

Time and again Johnson has admit

mill, he assents. So, on or about
September 25. whenever the New
York promoters are ready, he and
Jeanette are to struggle.
The $4,000 and half the movie"
money, of course, are big induce
ments. But. believe me, Johnson, a
shrewd business man. has figured
even further. He knows he can
outlook Jeanette in ten rounds and
do it handily, too. He will probab-
ly pile up a big lead on the New
York negro. And later. when
Jeanette will challenge for a fight
over a championship distance,
Johnson will be able to crawl out
of such by claiming:
"Oh. | gave Jeanette a good
beating in New York. He and l
wouldn't draw anywhere now. No,
| don't consider him at all"
Therefore the coming ten-round
fight in Gay Gotham is going to
furnish a fine young loophole for
Champion John Arthur Johnson.
He will then only have Langford as
a real contender, and. as in the
past, will keep on saying that
Langford is too small and that
the public doesn't want such q
match.
HERE are some Of the reasons
L why Johnson doesn't want to
fight Jeanette over a route:
1. Jeanette can stand an unlim-

recover from a blow faster and
better than any fighter in the game
today
2. Johnson knows that Jeanette
does not fear him and therefore
will fight at top speed.
g. Johnson's best blow is an up
percut-both right and left. Jean
nette is not a rushing fighter and
stands erect. 1t will be impossible
for Johnson to use an uppercut ex-
cept when in a clinch on Jeanette
4, Johnson's best blows, including
the uppercut will be of little use
to him. for Jeanette is a bear on
the defense when in close.
3. Jeannette's best blow Cand. for
that matter, about his only blow
is left jab, which is lightning
fast. And with it Jeanette can
beat Johnson to the punch every
time.

Sam McNey in 40 rounds in Paris
April H. 1909. But that fight in
France has caused Johnson to an
preciate what a wonderful scran-
per the New York negro really is.
On February 20, 1909. Jeanette
and McVey fought a terrific 30
round draw in Paris. During tbe
early rounds McVey made A chon-
ping block of Jeanette, but from
the 25th round on Joe came hack
strong and all but knocked Samuel

and distinct times. But in the 41st
round McVey began to tire-tire
from punching Jeanette so hard
and often. And right there the
tide of battle changed.
From then on through the 4Sth
round Jeanette jabbed the totter-

When Sam went to his corner at
