THREE AEAv|ES
after WILLARD
Dempsey, Fulton and Bren-
nan All Would Take Crown
From Big tle.Holder.

Two new heavyweights are coming
along very nicely-Bill Brennan. the
Chicago Celt. and Jack Dempsey, the
San Francisco young man who has
placed himself under the wing of Jack
Kearns. former manager of Billy MUIR
ray, Red Watson and others. Brennan
has been scoring many knockouts OF
late and is being boosted as a candidate
for Jess Wizards crown; while the Pa
cific coast boxing fans are of the opin
ION that Dempsey may prove to be an
other Jim Corbett or Jim Jeffries, al
though he has not the poundage of
Big jeff. Dempsey's greatest claim
to recognition is the fact that he beat
Gunboat Smith and Carl Norris in four
round bouts. Bill and Jack have one
barrier they must handle before they
can get in sight of the Willard camp
Frederick FultOn--and it is barrier
that will be rather difficult to pass. Jim
Coffey, the New York Celt, and also
Frank Moran. the Pittsburgh big fell
low. We're considered as contenders,
but since Coffey passed up meeting
with Fulton he has been tabled as out
of the race: while Moran has not
evinced any real inclination to meet
the Rochester giant. Moran had many
opportunities to take on Fulton, but
for some reason or other has failed to
make the match. By beating whole
string Of heavies in short order, such
as Charlie Weinert, Tom Cowler
Perky Flynn. Sam Langford, Bob De-
vers, Al Reich and others, Fulton has
proved himself the only logical heavy
weight to meet Willard in title
match.
With New York resorting to the
membership club plan, the big fight
centers will shift from the east to the
middle west-Milwaukee and st. Paul
and nneapolis--although in the past
Milwaukee has held just as big events
as New York, with probably one ex
ception-the willard, Moran fight at
Madison Square Garden. In New Yorl,
the clubs will not be able to cater to
outsiders, and. besides. the seating ca :
pacity will not be there. Already many
of the stars have been casting longing
eyes toward the middle west for big
tevents.
