have been in Atlanta for some time
begging for a chance to get on, but they
certainly showed the stuff that they are
made Of last night.
lannon's chief asset appears to be a
hard right hand wallop that he shoots
over in a half-hook fashion. Eddie can
also take a punch, which he proved in
the opening round when Mickey stung
him with a right cross Eddie came
back harder than ever after that. which
seemed to take the heart out OF game
Mickey.
Grants Wolgast style of milling made
big hit with the fans. Jimmy doesn t
know what 1t means to stop coming and
the harder he is hit the faster he PUSHES
his opponent. Grant ia a wonderful boy
for his weight and should give the best

last night that he is ono OF the greatest
fighters of his inches when in condi-
