Damon Runyon, the sports writer,
dubbed this giant South American
'"rhe Wild Bull of the Pampas." AS
a matter of fact Firpo is a city-raised
fellow and l doubt if he knows much
about the pampas. Just the same, it
was Il wonderful name. 1t added all
the more to the picturesqueness of
the big fellow. 1t helped to make
him a drawing card.
Attracts Much Attention.
Firpo, by the way, Is a good illus
tration of the scrapper who always
attracts attention, whether he be a
really great fighter or not. Long be-
fore the big fellow had developed
enough ability to compel a fight with
the champion the public was growing
more and more anxious to see him.

dieting that he would be the next
contender for Dempsey's crown.
Arouses ArEentinfan's Ire.
In the fourth round Brennan landed
vicious right on Firpo and then
outted him over the eye. This both
cred the big fellow and he was a
pitiful sight starting the fifth round.
This happening had aroused a fight
ing giant, as Brennan was soon to
know. 1.-The Wild Bull of the Pam
pas" began to roar. Still, Brennan,
the skillfu1 old warhorse, looked like
winner up to the twelfth round.
Then something happened. s
fairly smothered Bill with an attack.
Brennan could hardly get his arms
up to ward off the assault. Finally
Firpo landed a right on his jaw. As
Brennan ducked, Firpo cracked him
behind the ear with the rabbit punch,
knocking him cold. Oddly enough,
this was exactly the same punch, de-
livered in the same round that Demp-
sey had used to knock out Brennan.
To give you an idea of the interest
in that battle La Nacion, the Buenos
Aires newspaper took a long cabled
account of it at $3.50 word: Firpo
was made as a drawing card. How
big a figure he has become in the
fight world every fan now knows.
