that n the Dempsey people cannot
get even money they will offer odds
against the champion.
Victory. for Jess Willard with a
knockout within five rounds In his
heavyweight championship contest
with Jack Dempsey here July I. was
the prediction today OF Walter Mon
ahan, chief sparring partner for the
champion. Mouahan based his pre-
diction on his close knowledge Of
Wizards phyaical condition, gained
through several years OF work with
him. II was MonRhan who condi-
toned Willard for HIS match with
Jack johnson AT Havana,
Behind that covering Of flesh on
Wizards mldBcctlou, which has
caused boxing experts TO proclaim
the champion IL not In condition, is
n wall OF muscle. MonnhRn said to-
day. He asserted that the muscles
protecting Wizards stomach are like
rods OF iron and that Dempsey will
not be able 10 hurt him with stom-
ach punches.
Dempsey will he the most sur
prised man in the world when ne let's
fly Rt Wizards stomach with all the
power OF his punches and finds that
his blows will do no damage"
Monahan said.
Dempsey also Will get shock
when ne learns how exceedingly dir-
flcult Willard will be 10 hit solidly.
Jess will be greatly changed man
In the ring. He has not attempted 10
punish HIS sparring partners because
he believes Il is not necessary 10 un-
duly misuse them. But when he
gets into tho ring next Friday 1t
will be different willard than tho
man the public has been watching
In his training bouts
1T Is my honest opinion that
Dempsey will wear himself out with
his dashing attack within three
rounds Then he will be ready FOR
whatever Willard wants TO hand
him, Dempsey will not be able TO
avoid willard's right hand uppercuts
and II Jess connects solldly knock
out surely will result"
