kept winning and with each fight he
learned something about the delivery
and evasion of punches. Successive
battles made his name a prominent
one in the lightweight class in less
than two years. He built up a great
reputation in the years that followed.
In his early career he fought bril-
liantly against such boys at Eddie
Lenney Jimmy Dunn, Dave Deshler
and Tim Callahan. He went back to
Wales in 1907 and won eight straight
bouts with the knockout. Upon his
return he boxed all over America.
Something About His Record.
He beat Maurice Sayers and drew
with Charlie Neary two high-c
rugilists in 1908. He lost to Packey
Mcfarland in fifteen rounds at Mil
waukee. Then he humbled Phil Brock
and drew with McFarlind in twenty
five rounds at Vernon. Cal.
Later he trOunced Abe Attell, feath
erWeight champion then, in fifteen
rounds. He also whipped Frank Car
sey. Harry TrendaI, Young Erne and
knocked out Ray Bronson, who had
stopped Mcfarland.
Other men he defeated were Henri
Pet, Johnny Summers, Jem Driscoll,
Matty Baldwin and Paul Moore. He
again boxed a draw with Mcfarland
in London. in 1910. In 1911 he lost
the British lightweight title to Matt
Wells. Nineteen eleven was a bad
year for him and he imagined him
self "aIl in" athleticalIy speaking.
When he fought and licked Matty
win and Willie Richie in that year
he was at the bottom Of his form.
During the past three years Welsh
has had an in and out career. He
lost only once-to Jimmy Duffy, Of
LOCkport-but his boxing was not con-
sistent. He made poor showings with
Phil Bloom, Philadelphia Jack O'Brien,
Grover Hayes and Young Saylor.
In the past year Welsh has beaten
Johnny Dundee, Frank Whitney,
Mickey Sheridan. Joe Rivers, eLach
Cross and Willie Richie.
