CHAPTER ".

Thus was John L. Sullivan given 70
the world as It's foremost pugtlist. Fair
and honest in all his dealings. a cham
pion or championship stands now g
shining example 10 other pugilists.
After the Donaldson bouts offers were
fast end were accepted with equal
rapidity. In those days It wasn't Gus
tomary for the newspapers TO speculate
for several months or years over tho
probabilities OF such a match. with much
camouhage and deceit On each side
Challenges were made and accepted in
the open. The public instantly knew
when something was going to take
place. 50 Sullivan. taking his champion
ship ability seriously. met every one
that could be found for him 10 60
against.
In 1881 Sullivan met and defeated ave
men. among them being John Flood. the
fight being held on a barge anchored In
the Hudson river Just off Yonkers. \. y.
II was q vicious affair. fought under the
old London prize-ring rules, and with
Flood taking an unmcrcifui beating be
fore he succumbed.
Persistently then. Sullivan began 70
challenge Paddy Ryan. claimant Of the
American championship. Billy Madden
was then handling Sullivan and he had
painstakingly carried the youngster
through an early course of training.
The young giant had grown In
strength and cleverness. At hrst Just
mauling lad. with force predominant
over evory thing. he had merely stuck to
first principles Of boxing. AS a result
his strength was often vainly expended
IN endeavortns to hit shifty antagonists.
Madden relieved him OF this fault
Madden had early found that in John
L. Sullivan he had truly found . marvel
Of the boxing world. Really ferocious IN
appearance when reused to q fighting
stage. Sullivan added to his ability by
believing himself unconquerable. In
some ways the mind OF the fighter was
simple His very simplicity. however.
was the thing that eventually endeared
him 10 the American sporting public
That his brain was keen. however. was
proved through the gradual uplifting
impulse lie gave the game that was his
hfes choice.
Sullivan at his best weighed about
1875 pounds. lie stood i've feet. eleven
and q quarter inches in height HIS
arms were muscled with the long. rip
ping muscles that give power TO blows.
His back was thing Of beautv There
wasn't a bound muscle In his makeup.
Madden had taken g. gradual course
in fitting his young protegc for the
battle that was to make him the
American heavyweight title AID give
him & good claim TO the worlds title.
