out something OF a whipping in return.
But he was being steadily outfought

The result astounded the thousands

odds. Klaus won handsomely on the
fight, as he bet freely on himself and
got twice the money back that he
risked.
Papke's showing was disappointing.
He did not train but two weeks for the
contest. and today his followers are
blaming his lack of condition for his
poor battle.
The man from Illinois did not begin
to do as well as he did against Car
pentier. while Klaus fought much bet
ter than on his previous appearance
here. He kept after Papke continually
and gradually slowed him up with the
famous right hand punch to the body
which has won Klaus SO many fights
in America.
Papke tried desperately In the early
rounds to get home with right hand
swing that would settle the affair, and
Klaus always managed to get out of
the way in time. In the latter rounds
the dreaded Papke punch was not so
much in evidence and Klaus had an
easier time. while able to take more
chances.
1t was a rough, mauling fight, with
most of the execution on both sides
done at close range. Papke fought
continually for the face. aiming to land
knockout punch on the jaw. Klaus
confined most of his efforts to body
punching and it was this system that
won for him.
