Bisbee daily review., 1920-02-27


 tame ten round fight with Young Farrell of Los Angeles. last night at the Grand Theatre. The decision was well received by the audience.
 The fight opened slow and tame with both boys evidently trying to figure the other out. After they had kept up the same tactics for three rounds. the crowd began to yell fight In the first three rounds the boys tapped each other lightly and kept constantly running into clinches. Evidently neither boy was trying to hit They hopped about the ring with Lincoln doing all the leading and Farrel coming back for an occasional light tap on the head or an easy jab to the face and chin
 Up to the eighth round the fight so lacked the element Of thrill and ex- citement that the audience sat back without murmur or a cheer. In nearly every round of the first eight Lincoln opened hostilities with light left and right hooks to the head and kidneys. Farrell hit with great deal more steam but Lincoln hit twice for every blow that he received. In the eighth round the real fight, if it could be called that, began. The two men met in the center of the ring and clinched. jucOln came out of the clinch and started his fast work, sending in left hooks to Farrells head and mid section while Farrell retaliated with stiff jabs to the jaw and face. Farrell also opened up this rOnpd and hauop oapd;nr h; 1e. jabs in faster. They mixed it lively ln the center of the ring but neither was doing any damage.
 In the ninth round Farrell opened hostilities with a pretty left hook t. Lincoln's face. He followed this with a stiff left to the chest and a jab to the face. Lincoln answered with a left swing to the head but seemed to lack steam.
 In the tenth round the audience re- ceived its only thrill when both fighters started off with a great deal of speed. Farrell opened this round with a hard left to the face and Lin coin clinched- and fought him hard Tn the clinches, using both handa to Farrell's mid-section.
 Four of the rounds went ot Lincoln and two to Farrell, the rest being even.
 The only real fight of the evening was the four round go between Larry Frasco and Kid Hartman. who fought to good hard draw. Both of the boys had plenty of steam behind their punches and used them wit1 telling effect. In the first round Larry almost flOored his opponent with a good stiff right to the neck, In the second round the two nike" 1t lively, each using both his hand Hartman used left and right hook repeatedly while Frasco played fO~ the Kids face and at the end of tn round Hartman emerged with a pair of slightly blackened eyes. The draw decision was well received.
 Jimmy Fyhr, d 9S pounder. and Young Davis. 110 pounds, brought tho audience almost to tears with laugb ter. Fyhr would skip around al always on his feet and flying frorr one end of the ring to the other When Young Davis would swing Fyhr would be on theother side o the ring and Davis would be turned completely around With the force c his swing. Most of the first ron was a foot race around the ring witt Jimmy far in the lead. Davis would almost corner the little paper weight but Fyhr always got away. Davis made one terrific wild swing in an effort to end the fight, missed his mark by a mile and dove head first into the corner of the mat by the force of his swing. The Trace" was declared a draw after four fast rounds.
