y: TO DECIDE TITLE =! co
ANDERSON-CROSS BOUT 4 SLUGFE.ST
BY W. W. Naughton.

| CAN FRANCISCO, July Am the
- case of the Richie Rivers con-
test proving a long drawn out
affair, which of the lightweights is
the more likely to retain his fighting
strength? ..r
This is one OF the questions under
going discussion on the eve of the
battle, and 1t is a very important one.
Moreover, 1t is a hard one to answer.
When two pugilists are to meet at
a certain weight the average student
tries to discover which of the pair will
find 1t easier reaching the notch
Every old trainer knows that a
fighter is apt to lose several pounds
during a trying bout, and a wise bet
ting man must keep this in view. It
! is to his interest to know which Of
the pugilists is likely to be the more
seriously affected by the sloughing off
of poundage in the ring.
Weight Surely FaVors Rivers.
Right off the reel one would say
that Rivers is the one less likely 10
become weak if the contest is waged
at fast pace and goes over the If
teen round mark. He is pudgv fell
low, and, while he has had to work to
make 1874 pounds, 1t is certain that he
can box at 125 pounds If occasion
demands 1t. This means that if Rivers
loses few pounds while battling with
Richie, no inroads will have been
made on his strength.
1t may be, as ii was with Ad VOL
CAST in his first match with Tommy
Murphy, Rivers, while growing light
er, may simply be fighting himself
into better condition
Now, in the ordinary course Of
things one could not imagine Willie
Richie as losing weight to his ad-
vantage while mill was in progress
The champion is heavy lightweight
This is shown by the fact that he de-
manded that the notch for the coming
mill be fixed at a pound above the
lightweight scale
Came Down From 154 Pounds.
Billy Nolan says that Ritchie
weighed fully 1874 pounds when he be-
gan training for his championship
match with Ad Wolgast This gives
an idea of what a big fellow Richie
is walking about"
OF course, he did not weigh any
thing like that when he went into
camp for the present match. He had
learned his lesson, and by keeping
himself actively engaged during his
six months Of theatrical work he held
himself around the 140-pound mark.
But, Irrespective of what he weighed
when starting out on the present
training SPELL Richie will be pretty
well dried out and as lean as any one
of Pharaoh5s kline when he steps into
the ring to-day. He win have nothing
to come and go on, as is the case with
Rivers
Now, if this were an infallible line
of reasoning, Ritchie's friends would
have to admit that the longer the
fight continued the bluer would be-
come the outlook for Willie Richie.
But 1t is not infallible.
All Depends on Endurance.
There is such q difference in ring
men that what would prove a serious
disadvantage to one would mean little
or no detriment to another.
And II all hinges on that innate
quality ENDURANCE

The White men figure that he may
be outpointed in the early rounds,
but that his stamina and great punch
will surely wear Britton down in the
last seven or eight rounds. Many Of
the White followers believe that Char
ley will win by a Knockout.
Britton is verify figuring on out

training for speed alone, and in his
final work out of four rounds yes
