sePTvCyT BLOW WAS JACK
 DEMPSEY'S NEMESIS

1.oLr Deronsev was one of the gam est and most fearless fighters, yet III
 his latter years he had a Pecuhar op- session amounting almost to rear III regard to the old pivot blow, after
 ward barred. but in the old days a Ia vorite punch with some pugl1sts.
 lacks fear of the pivot blow dated from his fight with George La Blanche, staged in San Francesca tWenty-four years ago tomorrow. In Blanche was a French Canadian put a. naturalized citizen of the United States. He had served in the Marine Corps, and was generally known as ssMarine." He first fought Demp- sev in 1886, at a yacht club In New York, and put up good scrap put was knocked out in the th1rteenth They were matched again in 1889 and the rookus was pulled off at the Cali fornia A. C., on August 27th. Demp- sey was clearly the better man, but he was unable to put over the nhlshlhs touch. Jack had been warned 70 look out for the pivot blow, and when the Canadian tried it in the twenty fifth round it failed to land.d The scrap went along to the thtrtieth, and La Blanche was apparently nearly all in He was cornered by Dempsey who stepped back to let him out. when the Marine .fWhirled around
 backward with his, left extended uI.
 square on Jacks jaw and sent him down for the full count It was Non pareirs first defeat, and it gave him
 a, deathly fear of the pivot blow which he had always disliked. When Jack seconded McAuliffe, his old
 workshop pal" in his bout with Eng fish Jimmy Carroll, he constantly
 warned McAuliffe against the pivot
 blow. Carroll did try to use it, but was thwarted by Dempsey's vigilance Later, when Dempsey fought the Aus tralfan, Billy McCarty, in New Orleans, McAuliffe was his second, and warn
 ed the Nonparei1 when McCarty tried to put over the pivot. Very few fight CTS could use the pivot blow effective ly, There have been various other punches that have been confined to few boxers George Dawson origin ated the kidney punch, and was the only tboxer who could put it over per fectly, although Tommy Ryan used it fairly we'll, Kid MeCoys 'cork-screw" was never very successfully initiated.
 The Hosier middleweight also had a
 liver punch that was a terror. Bob
 F1tz was the master of the heart and solar plexus blows, which had to be timed to a nicety to be effective.
