Mullins has been getting a lot of
credit for being a man of his word
as result of his action--that is,
those who do not do a whole lot of
thinking are slapping him on the
back.
1t will be remembered that early
last Summer Mullins signed Harry
Wills to fight over in Newark.
Mullins Pretty Shrewd.
When New York promoters wanted
to put on a Wills-Weinert battle to
help out the WalkerGreb show the
Jersey promoters obligingly stepped
aside, and Mullins promised that in
,return for this they could have the
first chance at the big negro after
the Weinert bout.
So when he put his name on the
dotted line for a go with johnson in
Newark the hasty thinkers murmured
that it was pretty decent of Paddy.
But the wise guys are talking diff
ferently. Mullins, they are saying,
always was a shrewd shooter, and
now once again he has proved it.
For the idea of putting Floyd John
son against the Black Panther Is
enough to make old John l.. Sullivan
turn in his grave. Floyd. as a matter
of fact, has been through these past
two years
Floyd Likes to Play.
This native Iowan was alternating
in California when Alec Greggains,
the old-time fighter picked on him as
prospect. Alec worked hard with
the sturdy youngster and brought him
fights regularly. Then at length
Greggains decided to take his protege
East and horn into the big money.
His first fight was in June, 1922,
Carmine Caggiano being his. opponent.
The Italian went out in the first
round His next opponent was the
human punching bag, Sailor Maxted.
The sailor was sent to oblivion in
seven rounds.
Then all Greggains' work went for
naught when Floyd, who' had got a
taste of the white lights, found the
rigid disciplinary rules of the veteran
fighter too arduous, and Charley Cook
took him over
For a time all went we'll with Floyd.
He had a fighting heart and when he
was in the ring there was action every
minute. He knocked out Bob Martin
of the A. E. F., Bob being looked upon
hs a promising prospect at the time,
and he slowed away Larry Williams
and Jack McAuliffe.
Future Looked Brilliant.
He also showed well against Bill
Brennan, Willie Meehan and Fred
Fulton. There was no more promis-
ing youngster in the heavyweight
ranks, and his future looked brilliant.
Along about this time the powers
that be decreed that Jess Willard was
to be built up for some big money
bouts Johnson was picked as the
stepping stone. His style of rushing
tactics was just suited to Wizards
big bulk and heavy punches.
He tore into the big fellow for
il rounds and was a mark for
Jess ramrod lefts and cruel upper
cuts. He went down a beaten and
exhausted boxer, and has been that
ever since. Jack Renault gave him
the same dose that Willard gave him,
taking Is rounds to do it.
Since then Floyd has been mark
for Jack Sharkey, Tiny Jim Herman,
the notorious Tony Fuente and Pat
Lester. s
The plan to throw johnson into the
ring with Wills is both cruel joke
on Floyd and on the Jersey fans.
