TACK DRTrToN has a rcmatl,ab

TACK BRITTON has a remarkable
record as wcltcr champion. lie,
- like Leonard, never lodged an OPP
Donent. Kid Lewis was his most
dangerous rival. lie fought Lcwis is
often as anyone offered to put up "a
purse.
After winning the wcltcrweight I
championship by beating Lewis at
New Orleans In twenty rounds. Brit %
ton gave Lewis "A return match only
four weeks later. II was twelve
round bout, with a decision, In Bos
ton, He beat LSwls again.
In one year. after winning the
championship. Britton gave Lewis six
chRnces at the title. He fought him
twice In Boston. with decisions, and
once each In St. Louis, Cincinnati and
New York, then twenty rounds at
Dayton. II was in this last fight that
lsewis for the first time took decis
Ion over Champion Brltton and the
title with II.
Since that time Britton has tried
repeatedly to induce Lewis to fight
MIN again. and Lewis has refused "a
risk his title" This In spite Of tho
fact that Britton had given him siS
return matches in a year. II appears
that OF the two Britton was much the
better champion.
NBritton is in as good condition n,
when he fought Lewis timc and agair
for the welter title. Benny Leonard
