While Ritchie's recent fights haven't
been so good. he is said to be in good
shape for the battle with Welsh. IL
he is right, he will probably wade
right into Welsh and compel him to
mix it. In such an event the Yankee
should win. Welshs hope seems to
be to outpoint Willie and stay away
from him, but from what ! have seen
of Richie the lightweight has not
been born yet who could keep clear
and clean of this great aggressive
little fighter. He may win by a knock
out, but he should win in any event,
