superiority at infighting. He revelled In
his work at close quarters. never let

fusillade Of lefts and rights to the body.
Occasionally he would rip an uppercut to
the jaw or an overland left or right to
the back. whenever lie got one arm free.
In the nrst six und there was
scarcely one idle second. Dundee opened
the nrst with a rush and closed the
tenth with a rush. He rowded Bloom

tention to boxing at Ions range. and
although he scored repeatedly with

minutes. using 1t to smother every one
OF Dundee's attacks. Whenever they
got close Phil beat Johnny to the body

dance and skip and bound about the ring
In his most spectacular fashion Also
he would walk into Bloom with his face
and head covered up md suddenly

round Dundee administered severe body
punishment and connected several times
