was useless, however. lie knocked the
Spider" down many times and came
out an easy winner.
He was not freak in build: he
possessed a bulky neck and shoulders
Neither was he considered a hard
puncher, but his ability in manipula.- :
ing the gloves was all but uncanny.
He was the most speedy and perpleN-
ing boxer that ever fought under the
Queensbury rules.
At the time he boxed Johnnie Grif-
fths, the Braintrce Lad" it was
supposed that the American would
have some chance. but he didn't. In
Griftith's corner was Billy Murphy, an
Australian. and an arch enemy OF
Griffo. AT the beginning of the bout
Murphy began tauntinG Grifo, but he
paid no attention to him. Before the
opening round was half over Griffo
had Griffiths dazed and helpless Grif-
fiths was close to his own corner and
Young Griffo was holding him there
and at the same time speaking to
Murphy over the shoulder of Griftiihs.
He shouted to Murphy, You aud
me is matched for a 20 next week. You
sec what this Boomers gcttin'; but
it's nothin' to what you'll get mo
covcy." and he squared off and hit
Griffths hard one in the jaw; the
"Braintree Lad" spat out a tooth.
Hes bleedin' Billy. but blimme Bill
ly. that's nothin' to what you'll get"
Now to understand Young Griffo's
calibre thoroly. 1t must be taken into
consideration that the Australian Billy
Murphy was "A wonder with the gloves.
lie stood at the very top Of the feath-
crwcights of his time. Griffo fought
him about a week later and did JUS I
what he said he would. It is certain
that the bout had something more than
the money that was a stake. 1t was
for revenge. and Grinfo pummcllcd
Murphy numerically.

Young Griffo was, in the opinion OF
the writer, IL all classes are equalized,
the greatest boxer of whom there IS
any record; and it can be truthfully
said that he was the most erratic.
Aside from being erratic his eccentric
cities were degoneratins lie died in
Chicago several years ago a moral and
social outcast.
What distinction he would have ac-
Quired if he had but walked the
straight and narrow is problenlatical.
and this is the most pleasant phase
Of his memory. He never won and
held a championship in this country. 1t
was his performances against the best
fcathcrweiGhts and lishtwcights OF
his time that stamped him a wonder.
II is doubtful If he ever was in condi-
tion to night, and the strange thing is
how il was possible for him to draw
with fcatherweights like George Dixon
and liEhtweights like Joe Cans, with
out being in condition.
1t is certain that his habits would
never have allowed him to have won
championship. or to have sustained
it. The two Illustrations given will
explain his manner OF lighting.
