jim FLYNN NOT
LIKELY TO WIN
UNLESS JOHNSON HAS GONE
BACK PUEBLO FIREMAN HAS
AN UPHILL FIGHT BE-
FORE HIM.

Tommy Ryan may be able to teach
Jim Flynn a few tricks about boxing,
but he will not take the Pueblo fireman
away from his own manner of getting
in trim. Flynn needs to learn a few
points about the inside angle OF milling.
as he is not close to being thorough in
his boxing.
That does not worry the man who is
to meet johnson any. because he has a
style of his own that has been bring
ing home the money and he is not
going TO pass it up. Flynn's strength
lies in his ability to be aggressive,
rush and get inside much on the order
of Battling Nelson and Ad Wolgast.
Like these two lightweights. he dotes
on milling and can assimilate great
amount OF punishment to land few
blows.
There is no question but that Ryan
will attempt to teach FLYNN a lot about
boxing. but it will be of no use Flynn
is not built to be that kind of a bat
tier. And it probably will spoil him IL
il is attempted Trying to make a
clever boxer of a natural rugged fight
er has ruined many a promising man.
Flynn seems to know this and he is not
going to allow any one to change his
style
Flynn is one year younger than
Johnson. The impression as to ma
tionality which is instantly gained by
a glance at his name is Incorrect. He
is not Irish. but of German American
descent, his real name being Andrew
Haynes. lie is slightly above the
lmiddleweight limit. and probably will
weigh in fully forty pounds less than
Johnson.
His record, compared with Johnsons
hardly indicates that he is destined
to wear the heavyweight crown. In
1906. he was knocked out by Tommy
Burns in fifteen rounds; 1907, knocked
out by Johnson in eleven rounds: 1908,
knocked out by Al Kaufman in nine
rounds, and Sam Langford i'm one
round and in 1910 he was knocked out
by Langford I'm eight rounds. Last
year, Flynn did not lose a fight and
Nh'cheu out SuCll men as IonA "a
POM and Al Kaufman, also scoring
newspaper victory over Carl Nor
ris.
Flynn's only chance appears to rest
on the possibility of Johnsons having
gone back. The champion has APP
poared in no important fight since his
victory over Jim Jeffries, eighteen
months ago, and rumor has 1t that he
did not take the best of care of him
self while abroad His friends. how
ever, believe that he will come back
in good condition and If he does. there
is every indication that Flynn will
emerge from the Nevada ring. where

OF FAKES.

soaded by the criticisms of James J.
Corbett today aimed verbal upper
cut at Gentleman jim" which he
hopes Will stop the talk of the erst-
while champion. Johnson says that
Corbett by his conduct i'm his fight
with Kid Mccoy was responsible for
the closing up of the boxing game in
New York Johnson also says that
Corbett has done more to hurt boxing
than any other man connected with the
sport either as a fighter or writer
The big negro laughs at Corbett's ac-
cusations that he is afraid OF Sam
McNcy, Langford and Jeanette, and
comes back with the old reply that he
will fight anything or anybody il he
gets his price.
Johnson also made the following
statement under oath to T.. J. Bangs
a notary public:
Shortly after / returned from Aus
tralia from the Burns-Johnson fight

that he can not prove anything on me.
