WHAT THEY SAY
TIM MoGRATH.

If Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpen-
tier ever meet In the ring Tim McGrath
probably will be Dempsey's choice for
a trainer. McGrath 10 one of the few
great trainers I'm the country. He has
handled practically ali Of the good ones
of the past. His list includes Jack Shar-
key, Jack johnson, Battling Nelson,
George Dixon, Peter Jackson. Jim Cor
bett, Young Corbett and others. He be-
Ileves the men Of today equal those Of
yesterday.
Every time there Is a fight a lot OF
old-timers get around the ringside.
They always start comparing the fighter
OF today with those Of yesterday. Prac-
tically every time they say that the
lighters Of today couldn't hold a candle
to the fighters Of yesterday.
III always disagreed with them. /
would insist that the men OF today are
just as good as the men OF yesterday
And ] used to catch them twirling their
thumbs near their heads when said
that laughingly saying / must be mis-
taken.
Il kept to 81. used to tell them that
the reason tho present-day men didn't
look as good was because there were
no long lights and none OF the men
trained like the old timers did. It isn't
necessary to train hard for a four round
light but when man Is going in for the
finish he has to train hard
