Old Rivals Scheduled For IS

az BILLY EVANS,

Rocky Kansas is to get another shot
at the lightweight title when he meets
Champion Benny Leonard on Feb
ruary 10 in New York.
The bout is to be Is rounds to a
decision. While Leonard is picked to
retain his title without much diff
Guilty, Kansas unquestionably has a
chance.
AS far as class is concerned, it is all
with Leonard, yet Kansas is the type
of fighter who must De reared He
is strong, willing and has plenty of
couragt. He likes to fight That
makes him dangerous.
Kansas is a peculiar looking fighter.
He is short of stature with hairy
ches and long arms, which are con-
stantly flying through space, in
hope they will connect with a vital
spot on his opponent. ,
Last year was big one for Kansas.
He jumped from the ordinary per-
former TO championship contender.
He scored knockouts over such good
boys as Jimmy Duffy, Richie Mitchell
and Bobby Ward.
Kansas also received the decision
over such classy performers as Willie
Jackson, Lew Tender, frankie Britt
and Johnny Ray.
On June 6. 1921, Kansas had
chance at the title when he met Leon
ard in 12-round bout at Harrison,
n. ]. 1t was a no-decision affair, so
Kansas only chance was 10 WIN by
knockout. Leonard was the master OF
the situation at all times, although
Kansas was always dangerous and fin
ished strong.
Kansas is taking the coming bout
most seriously. He is confident that
Leonard is in for a busy evening. If
tesining and effort means anything
Kansas has great chance.
Evidetly Leonard is not in the least
worried, as his managtr, Billy Glib
son, has booked three fights that are
to follow the Kansas affair.
