hand in front of his glove. Dempsey landed a hard right to the jaw which seemed to hurt Gibbons; the men were fighting at close quarters when the round ended.
 Gibbons fought we'll through the seventh, eighth and ninth rounds, but was weakening and had no chance to win. Veterans of the ringside recalled the sprinting tactics of Charley Mitch ell in his fight with John L. Sullivan in England. Gibbons made a poor show ing at times, but at other times did the cleyerest of fighting.
 Round 14.-Dempsey seemed less fresh as he came out of his corner. He missed right lead and they clinched Gibbons was now fighting on the de- fensive, and was OutboXing the cham pion, who seemed puzzled in his at tempt to land telling blow. Demp- sey was missing so much from a dis tance that he tried to do all his fight ing at close quarters with Gibbons boxing away from him and at times sprinting around the ring. Gibbons blocked two right hooks and stepped away from wild left swing. Demp- sey missed a left jab and they clinch- ed; Gibbons landed a right and left to the jaw and they clinched again; Dempsey got over a right to the jaw and Gibbons cOuntered with two lefts to the head; they clinched again with Dempsey pounding right and left or neck; Gibbons landed a right to jaw and clinched again; Gibbons backed Dempsey into corner and stepped back from a hard right.
 Round 15.-The crowd was in a tu- mutt as the men shook hands. Demp- sey missed a left for the body and they clinched; Dempsey landed stiff right to the head and a clinch follow ed; Gibbons was holding on and the FeIefee cautioned him; Gibbons was strictly on the defensive and was ap- parently only trying to go the dis tance. Dempsey landed right and left to head, desperately trying for knockout. He missed a terrific right swing and they clinched. Gibbons was very tired but apparently able to get away. Dempsey tried to back him in- to a corner and hurt Gibbons with hard right to the jaw; Gibbons was groggy, and clinched, Dempsey pound ing his body. Gibbons corner yelled for the referee to separate them. A stiff left to the jaw again rocked Gib- bons, and as the gong rang ending the bout, Gibbons placed a light right to Dempsey's jaw
