Lynch In three, Jack Mcdonald In
one. Jasper White In ?, Harry Smith
In three. Cock Robin In three, Jack
Scales tagain) In one and Frank
Craig In seven. O'Brien was cham
pion OF England while In that coun-
try and was gathering in the coin
like an oil well shark.
Kid Mccoy was the one boxer In
America more cunning and foxy
than O'Brien. The two had gen
tleman's agreement" to avoid each
other. but the news of O'Brien's
cleanup in England was too much
for Mccoy. He decided to put one
over on foxy Jack. Mccoy was tho
better fighter OF the two. He
would hop over to England uneX-
pectedly. take O'Brlcn by surprise
and publicly challenge him and
force him into match. Then he'd
trim O'Brien and get all the glory
and theatrical dates himself.
Mccoy Challenges Three I'm u Night
Mccoy landed In England un-
heralded. but foxy O'Brien had an
underground wire somewhere and
knew that he was coming. O'Brien
fitted up to Scotland and trimmed
"A couple OF easy marks there. Nc
Coy, missing him, quickly planned a
stunt that would make O'Brien's
feats look like a copper cent to
Woldorf waiter.
He offered to fight any three men
In England on the same night, with
10 minutes rest between fights and
knock them all out or forfeit the
purse!
His challenge was accepted and
he was matched to fight Dave Barry,
Jack Madden and Jack Scales. He
knocked out Barry in two rounds,
Madden In four and Scales In a
round.
Mccoy was master boxer with a
punch and mind so keen and cum
ming that he acknowledged no mem
tai equal In the ring but Pob Fit.-
simmons.
Mccoy liked 10 have his little Joke.
Scales. when | saw him fight at
Whitechapel, was thick, square,
built fellow, rather fat. and as slow
az dray horse. Mccoy knew he
could knock Scales out easily, but
preferred to do 1t by trickery. Just
because winning by trlckery amused
him. As Scales stepped up TO meet
Mccoy in the first the Kid stopped
and dropped his hands, looking at
Scales feet and laughing.
"Why don't you tie your shoe
laccs2" asked Mccoy.
Scales looked down. There was
only one blow struck and the referee
could ave counted a hundred.
saw Scales afterward and he
he'd been beaten by "a blawsted
Yankee trick" and was very indig-
nant. But ! think he was lucky for
Mccoy might have had a notion to
let him stay a few rounds and cut
him to ribbons.
Seing that ORrien had dodgei
him, Mccoy jumped back TO New
York and O'Brien returned to Eng
land to beat Charlie McKeever and
Iank Kenny.

1t would be strange thing and
set n record In boxing II an ex-wel-
terweight champion should step
into the position of light heavy
weight champion OF the world while
still at the welterweight limit. But
this is Just what will happen should
Ted (kid) Lewis manage to defeat
Georges Carpenter wien they clash
at the Olympia club in London,
England. Thursday night in what
will he the feature bout of this
weeks pugilistiU calendar.
II is doubtful II such a contest
could be staged in the United States,
where boxing commissions have
been very strict In seeing to 1t that
promoters made even matches, but
the Britich who have seen Lewis
defeat every welterweight and mid
dlewcight in this country. and thus
believe him to be a great fighter,
think he stands a splendid chance
of beating the French pugilistic
idol. They expect the fight to end
in n knockout. and, IL Lewis wins.
for II TO be In about four rounds
This would mean that he would
have to win almost as easily n
Dempsey did. which seems incred-
ihle but 1t may that Carpenter
isn't the Fighter he vas when Jack c
right mauler placed him on the re
ined canvas July 4, 1921.
How They Compare Physically.
The English think so much OF
Lewis chances that they are risking
considerable coin on him. the bet
ting favoring the Frenchman at
eight to five. But Carpenter money

not his old SELF but these can be
taken with a grain OF salt.
The chief thing against Lewis is
that he never has been considered 4
very hard puncher. So IL he beats
the Frenchman IL will mean that
Carpenter was merely a press
agented fighter who never could
fight much or that he has gone back
and really is weak physically.
Must Win DccisiveIy.
If Carpenter wins he will gain
nothing but the distinction OF being
Il good man who is too small to
match with him. Should Lewis win
1t Will make the lightweight dlvis-
ion look like poor one and will
never cast a shadow on the ability
OF Dempsey, who had to take more
than a minute to beat the idol OF
European boxing followers.
1t Is difficult to figure how Car
pentier could afford to take this
bout. There has been some talk OF
his meeting Dempsey again. Proper
ly press agented this fight would
have gone over big in London or
Paris and made the F'renchman
lot OF money. II he beats Lewis,
unless he does 1t in a round or two.
and completely outclasses the little
Hebrew welterweight, he will not be
considered a fit opponent for tho
champion, and IL Lewis beats him
he is out of the running entirely.
Therefore, Carpenter has nothing
to gain except a few dollars and
everything to lose by this engage
ment.
Jack Britton can beat Lewis. So
should Lewis win. Britton can easily
hold the welterweight and light
heavyweight championships. some
thing heretofore unknown in box
ing.

This gives the Frenchman 25
pounds advantage in weight, be-
sides a lot OF other advantages that
should make him topheavy favor
ite to win. Possibly Lewis has one
or two slight advantages, they be-
ing more experience and better ring
generalship. II Ia doubtful II there
is n fighter in the world today who
has had more good experience than
Lewis. He boxed in England for n
time before he came to this coun-
try. and then fought several hum
dred battles In the few years he was
here. He was one OF our >fnost
active champions when he held the
welterweight title. He took 1t from
Jack Britain, and those two fought
so many times that their being
matched looked like a mere repeti-
tion OF an oid-time act. Finally
Bdittof flattened Lewis and took
the title, which he still retains.
Best in England.
After losing the championship
Lewis went to England and came
back strong. He beat everything on
the other side of the big ditch that
was anywhere near his weight. Thus
the English believe he can give
away n lot OF poundage and again
be returned winner.
Carpenter has had lot of ex-
perience too hut not against as high
vclass fighters as Lewis. His ring
activities have been confined to Eu-
rope with the exception of his bouts
with Battling Levinsky and Jack
Dempsey. Levinsky was toppled In
Jig time to make him look good
against Dempsey and then the
champion toyed with him. Since
that time Carpenter has beaten .Ioe
Beckett, n glass -jawed Englishman,
and George Cook, an Australian
