AboutFights
and Fighters
BY LEO III. LASSEN

A F'rER tonlght'S fight m
n Los Angeles between hid
Kaplan, New York's world
champion featherweight. and
Bud Ridley, Seattle veteran,
Seattle fans viii have a pref
ty good line on what chance
Tod Morgan has Of winning
the title.
Morgan made Ridley look
like a novice in their two
fights here two years ago,
Ridley never laying glove
on the Coast champion in
their - rounds.
Joe Waterman. who d looking
after Ridleys interests. writes from
Los Angeles that Kaplan is short
and heavy and win come In TO
night weighing around las pounds
the lightweight limit-whilo Ridley.
who must weigh over is6 or for
felt $1,000. will have a hard time
putting on enough weight 90 be
over the limit. KRplan Is taking
no chances with his so-called titlc.
Waterman says that kapian
looks like he has taken a lot
uf bad bcatings In the ring and
in the gymnasium shape, up
like n boring la fighter. willing
TO take three punches TO land
one. Waterman thinks that
Morgan would have haplan
falling all over himself trying
10 hit him altho Waterman
doesn't know how Morgan
would stand the l.-round route.
Morgan. himself. viii be az the
rngside. scouting Ksplan. as they
are talking about matching Tod
with the champion 90 in the near
future. Morgan. however. will prob.
ably want TO try n few fights over
the longer route with lesser oppon-
ents before taking such a tough
match. II Is doubtful II Tod would
consider a match such as Ridley ia
taking. with everything 10 lose and
nothing 20 gain. as Morgan already
has the reputation.
