came gamely in. nose bleeding and eye
cut, to pass out a few body blows.
When the round was over, Fitz had
one naked thumb protruding through
his left glove and lots of gore on his
face.
The cold night air began to tell on
Burns right arm at the end of that
round.
He won the fourth round with his
left, but Fitzsimmons, fully recovered,
carefully worked on Chuck in the next,
chopping him about head and body,
and Chuck's nose bled a little.
SLIPS TO FLOOR.
Chuck, eager to let that right fly
(you could see it culver, or perhaps
it was just shivering), set himself sew
eral times in the sixth and seventh,
but nothing happened. Three times he
was about to let go, couldn't make up
his mind and slipped to the floor as
Fitz dashed around him.
In the ninth round, Fitzsimmons OBJ
viously hurt Burns with body smashes
but. could not mark the San Antonio
boys face.
Burns let right fly, his only good
blow in the tenth round, and Fits
knees sagged for a fraction of a sec
ond. In the eleventh Red, took COM
mand of the situation agcin, hitting
Burns three to one, thou n none OF
his blows did much damage.
There was much wrestling and in
fighting in the last round. Fitzsimmons
rushed in, smashed Chuck, and then
tied him up in clinch.
BETTER ON WARM NIGHT.
Fitzsimmons' superior reach told.
Likewise, Burns took the defensive en-
tirely too much after proving to HIM
self, the crowd and, above all, Fitz-
simmons. that he could knock Rec"
down. Aggressiveness and better box
ing earned Fitzsimmons at least an
even break.
Burns would like to meet Fitz on
warm night when that right is lin
bered up.
Fitzsimmons weighed ia IL, Burns,
166.
Kid Lencho, new sensation Of the
little fellows, made a raw beefsteak of
the hard face Of Mickey Cromwell. In
the seventh round Of a scheduled eight
round semi-windup, Cromwell gave out
from sheer fatigue and took the connt
