Following his night with Harry
Lewis. his next bout OF Importance
vas fought against a co'ored mid
dleweight by the name OF George
Gunther. who invaded France with
quite a reputation. Gunther had held
his own against such rugged Ameri-
en- scrappers as Tony Caponi and
that once hashy hghter OF his own
race, Jack Blackburn. He had also
beaten Harry Lewis on points in a
twenty-rouhd bout, and on the
strength OF his record he challenged
Carpenter. Just prior to meeting
Carpenter Gunther had stopped two
English battlers-Jewey Smith and
Seaman Parsons-in seven rounds
each, and had obtained a twenty
round draw with p. o. Curran.
At the outset Descamps refused to
listen to Gunther's challenge, but
eventually he consented to let Car
pentler meet the Australian middle
weight and the bout was staged In
Paris, April 3, 1912. Gunther gave
Carpenter a stubborn night. the bout
going the limit Of twenty rounds. but
lead on points.

same pair met for second time, and
Carpenter proved that his previous
victory was we'll earned by beating
Gunther decisively in fifteen rounds

of France. Roc was sent down fol-
the count in the sixth round. This
bout served as a training stunt for
Carpenter for his bout with Willie
Lewis. which was fought in Paris
twelve days later.
