Welsh Crificises White.
Freddy Welsh, the worlds champion

Chicago 1873 FOUNDER, viii have to learn
more about fopuworll in the ring before
he can hope TO annex the title. After
his match with White before the Cream
City a. c. in Milwaukee, last week,
Welsh said TO me:
white has O very strong punch and
is liable to put a man out at any time
If he can put IL over to the point OF
the Jaw, but 20 my mind he will never
be able to accomplish much against

footed before an opponent He gives
a clever man too much chance TO beat
him TO the punch and he is also liable
TO be caught off his balance and put
down If he had better foot action I'm
the ring he would be in position to take
advantage Of his opponents misses,
etc, but It is hard matter TO do so
while having both feet solid on the
canvas.
I like Charlie and think he is a
great little fighter, but he can advance
much I5ili by paying strict attention to
the finer points OF boxing inside the I
ring. Many OF the fans criucise me for I

punches with my opponents. Why !

He claims also he has beaten me be-

it, except in the 10 round bout in Mil z
