SAYS THEY BATTLE
HARD AS IN HIS DAY
2-Year- old Thinks Sullivan
and Others Would Have
Shone in This Era.
BY DONALD CAMERON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

~ UINCY, Mass, August IA
Jake Kilrain, who fought
~ rs rounds with John L.
~ Sullivan 40 years ago,
paused in his rounds as a night
Waterman at the Fore River ship
building plant to speak a good
word for his successors in the ring.
The 72-year-old veteran of prize
fights that sometimes went 100
rounds or more is one old-timer
who isn't convinced the boxers Of
his day were any better than the
boys who step only 10 or is rounds
today.
we learned to fight under London
prize ring rules" he said, and all our
training was based on the conditions
existing then. If the top notchers of to-
day had lived in cur times guess they'd
probably have held their own
Jake doesn't see many fights these
days, but he follows the game closely.
Rates Tunney High.
"The present fighters are all right"
he said. They're about the same as we
won or lost. These young fellows go in
there and fight their heads off, too
Kilrain thinks Gene Tunney would
have been a good fighter in any era He
also thinks Sullivan, Charley Mitchell
and the other boys of his day would
be successful today.
He recalled his famous meeting with
Sullivan at Richbourg, Miss. in 1889,
when the two fought rs rounds with
bare knuckles, the last bare knuckle
championship bout Sullivan retained
his title and held 1t until Corbett de-
feated him in New Orleans in 1892.
Although promoters of the Sullivan
Kilrain bout out-witted troops ordered
out to prevent the battle, both the
fighters were arrested afterward.

'There was no newspaper ballhoo be-
fore our fights if we could help it," he
said. II remember coming up to Bos-
ton to fight Joe Lanni-1. The authori-
ties we're out to stop the fight, so went
to Somerville to wait until things got
1roned out.
"One day Jim Keenan,, who was to back
the fight, came along. He said: Jake,
you're the man I'm looking for. You're
fighting tonight He told me to be at
a certain corner with my second and

Kilrain's years rest lightly on him.
The massive chest swells as proudly as
1t did when he glared across the ring
at Sullivan. Ills waistline is still trim
and he insists he can hit as hard as
ever.
II couldn't last as long as used to-
he admitted, but while I lasted I'd be
pretty tough pill to take"
