| fellow in the contest with Della ney.
And as between Delaney and Nc.
! Tigue. Delaney was the harder, nut
to crack.
Sharkey also proved in the Nc
Tigue battle that he is not a hard
puncher. He lacks the ability to put
his weight behind his blows He may
acquire this trait, but then he will
forget what he learns between now
and May 10 if Maloney gets to him
like McTigue did. and throws him up
in the air. Jack lacks that snap to
his punch that makes man real
hitter.
Maloney has studied Sharkey and
knows just what he will be up against
when they meet. Because he is the
heady fighter, he'll be able to take
advantage of this.
Another Maloney knows that
Sharkey can't hurt him. He knows
this from their former meetings. In
fact, of the two, 1t is Maloney who is
the puncher, although I can't say
that Jim is exactly the hitter that
like to see a heavyweight be. Jim
had Sharkey on the floor many times
in one of their battles.

of the great Jim Corbett. OF course,
I don't mean that he is a Jim Corbett
yet, and he may never be, because old
Jim always kept his bean in the ring,
but Sharkey is of the Corbett school
of boxing. He is a good counterer
with his right hand.
But, as / see him. he is too easily
ratified, too prone to cut loose and
swing wildly when the other fellow
gets his goat, either with a punch,
lucky or otherwise, or when he be-
comes impatient at the other fellows
tactics and tries to get ahead of him.
self
Sharkey Is rangier than Maloney,
and he is faster. but Jim has it on
him in strength punch, head and
lasting ability. What's the answer?
Right now I'd say Maloney will beat
Sharkey.
