Challenger Jack Dempsey forecasts
his victory in the following words:
Six weeks Of constant training has
made me fit for the big event of my
life. In all my career I never felt
better than I do right now. and am
as certain of victory as a man can be.
The bigness Of Willard does not both

rls and Fred Fulton were not dwarfs,
and put both of them away, doing
the trick each time in less than one
round. No man in the world can
stand the attack will wage when I
enter the ring with Willard, My
youth, strength and natural fighting
ability will prove more than an off
set. to the extra poundage Of the
champion. That I have real conf
dence In my ability to take the title
away. from Willard is to be believed. 1
have never yet met a man I feared,
They all look alike to me. and unless
Willard is the super-man claimed by
his supporters, I shall knock him out
in a hurry. I would not be surprised
to list him along with Fulton, Morris
and the other one-rounders. He may
get the first, but If he does he is only
framing up a lot of trouble for him
self. I am sure ready to go to him.
