SNAPSHOTS
OF FORMER
CHAMPIONS

The years after Bob Fitzsimmons
lost the heavyweight crown to
James j. Jefries, he tried to get II
back and failed. Jefries knocked
him out in less time than on their
first meeting.
The second fight was ut San
Francisco, July rs. 1908. and In the
eighth round II ended In victory for
the champion. The first fight lasted
ii rounds.
The sport critics said Fitzsimmons
outboxed Jeffrics at every point, but
Jcffrics had shout the same capacity
for punishment rs Gargantua WAS
reputed 10 have had for food, and
besides. he had a tremendous advan-
tage in weight. Fitzsimmons
weighed 162 pounds. while the cham
pion from California entered the
ring ut go pounds to back up his
blows. .
Fitfsimmons fought a heroic fight
and danced about the heayy-swing-
ing Jeffries and sent home many n
hard-hitting fist. The forco Of these
was impotent against the great bulk
OF the champion, however. In the
deciding moment, Jeffries sent n
hard left hand smash to the jaw and
followed IL up with another left to
the stomach that knocked his lighter
opponent to the floor. Fffxsimmons
tried to rise but sank down and was
counted out.
