Hogsett's Failure Postpones

ROSS IS CONFIDENT
HE'LL RETAIN TITLE
We|ter Champ Figures His
Straight Punching Will
Stop Armstrong.
BY EARL HILLIGAN,
Associated Press Sports Writer

CHICAGO. April 23-The mistake
made by the boys who've been licked by
Henry Armstrong, Barney Ross said
today. is that they didn't stand up
and fight him"
Ross will defend his world welter-
weight boxing title against Armstrong
May rs, in Long Island Bowl, New
York. He predicted he will stop the
Negro who now holds the world feath-
erweight crown and is rated as one of
the hardest punchers, pound for pound
the ring ever has known.
Il know any one has to be in shape
to beat a fellow like Armstrong and
I'll be in the best shape Of my life for
this one" Ross said. Il don't think
Armstrong ever has founght any one
good enough to make him look bad
and I'm certain can do it when we
meet.
Unworried by Henry's Style.
1--WE seen him fight twice and figure
that when some one stands up and
fights with him he won't look so good.
He's a swarmer, continually crowding
in on top Of opponents, keeping them
from getting chance to throw a
punch, but I've never run away from
any one yet and I'm not going to run
from Armstrong
Most of the kids he's met, and
Knocked out have been scared to
death. A straight puncher-and I'm a
straight puncher-fgures to beat a
fellow who hooks or loops his punches,
and Armstrong loops his. That's why
I think I'll stop him. When he runs
into few punches they're bound to
take something out Of him, and I've
seen some highly rated fighters become
bewildered when they have to take
q few"
The Armstrong fight will be the
first in Ross career In which he will
hold a weight advantage The Chi
cago veteran, who repeatedly has
given away" weight to opponents,
expects to weigh about 142 pounds,
with the California sensation coming
in at about 1876.
Ross Gets Tune-up Monday.
Ross will meet Bobby Venner Mon
day night in scheduled 10-round
tune-up at Des Moines, Iowa Next
Wednesday he and Co-managers Sam
Plan and Art Winch will head for
New York. stopping there about two
days before going to Ferndale, NJ Y,
where Barney will round out training.
Plan believes the Armstrong Ross
bout, which shapes up as one of the
finest "naturals" in recent ring his
tory, will draw gate of 100000.
The contest should go long way to-
ward settling countless arguments be-
tween fans who lean toward the ter
riflc-punching Armstrong type and
those who like boxers Of Ross recog-
nized ability.
