M'FARLAND NOT AFRAID OF
GIBBONS, ASSERTS CORBETT

bouts in New York, also a twenty
round match IN Los Angeles two
months ago. Rivers gaining the ver-
dict in the California affair Cross
has maintained that he was not In
shape the last time, and there is con-
siderable truth in what he says.
Only two or three weeks before,
Leach had gone through the hardest
battle of his entire career-with
Ritohie-and was then compelled by
his agreement to travel four or five
days across the continent to battle
the tough Rivers. This gave him only
few days to become acclimated and
while I do not say he is a better
fighter than Rivers 1t is a cinch he
can do better when properly trained
and acclimated.
I think Cross will surely show bet
ter in the coming battle. He is a
persistent youth, and If given oppor-
tunity enough may succeed in land
his on the Mexican. But if Rivers
beats him again there will not be any
doubt of his superiority.
I saw Richie and Cross box in
New York. Cross fought the best
battle Of his lifetime that night. If
he can repeat against Rivers he has
a fine chance to win. But that Richie
showing may have been the one big
battle he had left in his system. He
may have outfought himself that
night at the Garden.
Worth What He Can Get.
Word comes from San Francisco
that the Gunboat Smith-Jess Willard
match, scheduled for July 4. has been
clinched and that there Is no longer
any doubt that the two leaders of
the white hope brigade will clash on
the big holiday.
understand that Tom Jones, man.
ager for Willard. Is guaranteeing
Smith something like $1,000 to get the
near champion" but then am glad
to hear that Smith is in position to
make his own terms. Fighting is a
hard game and q fighter is worth
whatever he can get.
The Gunboat, with all due respect
for his mighty kick. may not be so
independent after Willard gets
through with him In July. It is no
sure thing the Gunner will best Will
lard on points, as he did year ago.
Jess has learned a lot since then and
every time he has met man the sec
ond time his work has shown great
improvement over the first trial. CAL
ifornia fight fans seem to think Smith
will be easy for Willard, in spite of
the fact that he has a decision on
points over the big Texan to his
credit. For some reason the Gunboat
has never shown his best form on the
coast, and is regarded there as an ex-
tremely lucky fighter. His defeat of
Arthur Pelky was not exactly a brill
liant performance, and is quite over

pretender by Kid Kenneth, q practic-

Jim Buckley, Smiths manager, says

Gunner. Well, time will tell, and, for
