PIE FOR ]
CHAMPS
IN 1916
Not One Ring Boss Pressed
for Honors, Let Alone
Being Dethroned

The sport record OF 1916, in SO far
as II relates to the realm Of the jab
and the uppercut, shows nothing of q
startling nature. Not one Of the sew
eral recognized champions was even
pressed for his honors, not to men
ton being dethroned.
Jess Willard. the heavyweight title
holder, engaged in only one bout and
had no difficulty in that short affair
with Frank Moran. Freddie Welsh,
holder of the lightweight title, was
busy in a way. but he showed no dis
position TO risk his title In q bout to
a decision with the more dangerous Of
the contenders. Johnny KlIbane
showed a Willingness TO prove himself
real champion, and took on George
CLANCY. the boxer who was regarded
as his most dangerous rival. defeat
ing him with ease.
The bantamweight honors remain in
dispute with Williams and Ertie huFI-
ing challenges at each other, ana
each apparently unwilling to SETH
the dispute caused by the latter being
declared a winner on q foul The nid-
dlewetght situation shows Al Mccoy
generally recognized az the titiehoider,
but unable to win popular decisions
even over second ratere. In the wei
terweight division Jack Britton has
stepped to the front. but as q class IL
CESdLSp no more htereSL IMAM IN 0Lner
years when there were no good boxers
between the lightweight and middle
weight divisions.
4 new worlds championship class
has been added to boxing during the
past few weeks through the victory OF
Jimmy Wilde, rated In England as q
hy-weight, over Young Zulu Kid. The
class Is hardly likely to become very
popular owing TO the scarcity OF
boxers who scale at or near ITO
pounds. The year has been marked
by plenty of boxing and the boxers
have shared in unusual prosperity, but
nothing has happened to make any
real impression on the history Of. the
