I'll donate my share Of the proceeds to

This challenge goes for Jess Willard,
Frank Moran, ii mCOffey and the other
"heavies" I've challenged all Of them
time and again. but they always come
back with the answer that l am too
small
That's what lot of people thought a
year or two ago, but some OF them
don't think that way now I used to
fight in the middleweight division and
then later I took on light-heavy weights.
/ believe the public viii agree with me
when I say 1 cleared the pugilistic
horizon of light-heavies and established
a clear title to the light heaYyWeigE
championship.
And then l took on the bigger fell
lOws-men who Outweighed me from 20
to 80 pounds and who were from two
to six inches taller than J. There was
no one else for me TO fight. Ny weight
is only 40 and my height is feet ~
inches. but I'm not afraid to try con-
illusions with any living man
About a year or so ago Charlie
Weinert Of Newark. y. j.. was being
doomed as the logical contender for
the heavyweight championship of the
world. ] finally got Weinert in the
ring with me. Everyone said that I

win from big Sim Savage If vou'u

Savage stopped Moran in their fight
That was at time, too. when Savage
wasn't as good a man as when I met
him.
I've fought every man I could fight
None Of them have come too big for
me If you'll look through my record
you viii find that in addition to saw
age and Weinert I have fought such
big men as Jim Flynn, Perky Flynn.
