Hank to the following from
Mackay in his pet column:
Champions may come and
champions may go, but the Phila-
delphia fight fan is buffaloed for
ever. ANY titleholder who comes
to this city feels that he has q
perfect right to gyp the promoter
by whom he has been booked, fake
the public who pays the freight
and skip blithely away with the
loot, handing the merry laugh to
the Quaker City as one of the
soft spots in the land.
"This goes for every champion
that we have watched in action
here recently save one. That lad
is Pancho Villa. Every time that
the little Filipino, who holds the
flyweight crown, has boxed in
this mans town he has given the
fans a run for their money. That
is the reason why in one contest
held here he aided in drawing
$22, 1000 and more into the box Of
flee, the biggest gate that ever
accrued from an indoor boxing ex-
hibition in Philadelphia.
1.-THE others have put ,the bee
to the people. Mickey Walker
has invaded the town, buffaloed
the public and fought but one
fight in which we ever saw him
engage to the limit of his prowess.
That was when he knocked out
Bobby Barrett at the Phillies'
Park.
"In his bout with Tender he
carried Lew right along, and there
never was. a chance for Tender
to 60 down and out. Any man
who can be put out of business by
a Jack Zivic has a great chance
of facing a Mickey Walker and
standing on his feet at the end of
the tenth round, unless the thing
is fixed. Walker did the same
stunt with Johnny Gill;"
