gagements peter out, he will probably
do some fighting. AS big and fat
and out of condition as he is, John.
son, if he could only get on a match
| with Bombardier Wells, would be
able to pick up another big bank roll
] and still retain his title. Georges Car
pentier, whom Johnson may also
meet, is entirely too small for the
champion, so there is little chance Of
the champion being beaten by either
of the two biggest attractions in
Europe. In fact, there are SO few
heavyweights in the world who are
worth considering that Johnson would
have to go back a long way before
any of them would be q worthy OPP
ponent. About the only white man
in sight is AL Palzer, Tom O'Rourkes
big hope. Dan McKetrick, of course,
still believes that Joe jeanette can
beat Johnson, and not a few believe
that Sam Langford has Jacks num-
Der.
g
We will soon learn whether Ad
Wolgast is bluff1ng or not In his dec
laration that he will bet $4,000 that
he can beat Willie Richie, the cham
pion, in another fight, for Richie has
called Wolgast and at the same time
declares that AID will never make
such match.
II have posted $4,000 to bind a
match with Wolgast," Richie says,
land now let Ad come to the front
with an equal amount and we will
| then talk business. To show that
mean business l will name Septem-
Der or as the days on which
will fight him."
o
Wolgast, 1t is believed, is anxious
to fight Richie again, but his talk
about betting $4,000 on the outcome
is not taken seriously. AS to Ads
prospects In another bout with Richie
the indications are that the new
champion would be a top-heavy ia
vorite. While Wolgast lost on foul
in their last bout and the honesty OF
Ritchie's victory was always ques>
toned, the opinion prevails now that
Ad is "all in" and would not stand
ghost of show with Willie.
