ran could not stand of nature and he
slowed down terribly. lie was so slow

ting him at every opportunity with no
real defense offered.

training faithfully and underestimate
ing the strength Of his opponent Mo-
ran entered the ring in very poor con-
dition. He carried too much weight

see.

sharp right. Moran was taking 1t
easy while Dillon was dead in earnest.
Round two. After the usual light eX-
change Moran swung viciously at Dill

wildly. They were both inaccurate.
II was a slow and embarrassing round
that was virtually even.
Round three. Moran mauled Dillon
around tho ring with his right and left
and was trying for a knockout. He
could not find vital spot and the
crowd cheered ms Dillon made a rally

critical. Moran smiled as Dillon's left

Round five. II was the fastest round
Of the fight. In sharp exchange
Dillon made Moran's nose bleed badly
and the men exchanged Stiff blows

Round seven. Dillon was outboxlng

turned with hard right and left.
Round even.

then exchanged rights and lefts. Dill
Ion was trying to force the fighting at
this stage but Moran was still fighting
and taking 1t easy. Dillon opened Mo
rams eye with a hard left. Dillon's
