.AboutFights
and Fighters
BY LEO ii. LASSEN

Things have come 10 a
l. fine pass in the boxing
game when a champion can
dictate such terms as Kid
Kaplan was allowed TO hand
Bud Ridley for their fight
Tuesday night in Los An
geles.
Kaplan, a questionable
featherweight champion at
best, comes West TO pick up
some easy money, and being
forced to fight in a decision
bout, he stipulates that Bud
Ridley must come in over the
limit of 126 pounds and
forced the Seattle boxer to
put up a $1,000 forfeit TO
guarantee this.
Even II Ridley should win by a
knockout. he wouldn't gain Kap-
lan's title.
Nobody can make Kaplan
fight. hut they can refuse any
champion such terms. The bugs
ON the Coast undoubtedly want
10 see kaplan In action, but
when the boxing commission OF
California allowed a fighter ia
dictate such a contract then II
II aiming a blow at the very
heart Of the game.
Kaplan won the recent feather.
weight tournament conducted under
the New York boxing commissions
supervision when Johnny Dundee
declared TO that board that he had
retired.
How in the wide world the
New York commission should
have the right 10 select the
men 10 compete in such tour
nament and hand the winner
the worlds title is more than
anybody will ever understand.
The California commission, or
the boxing body OF any state
where the game Is legalized has
as much right TO name a cham.
pion as New York.
A tournament under the jurisdic-
ton of the. Boxing Federation.
which represents every state with
legalized boxing is the only one in
which a new champion should be
named
Kaplan can fight, no doubt
about that. His record in the
tournament proved that; but al
lowing him 10 get away with
what he did in making his con-
tract for the Ridley fight is be
yond Gus Public's comprehen.
sion.
with the champions refusing to
fight logical opponents, with mil
lion-dollar gates and with such tao
tics allowed. the fighters are hand
ing the goose that lays the golden
eggs dose OF slow poison.

Foley was a great fighter before
