White bout on the Pacific Coast. II
would have been willing to fight
White right away, but Angott can
wait. When he held the title before
did he give Bob title bout? He did
not"
In view of the fact that Angott
holds three decisions over Mont
gomery in as many title scraps,
was it possible that Thomas had
reason to fear a fourth match?
NO, no. said Thomas. chewing
one of his favorite big cigars. An
gott beat the stuffing out of Bob at
Madison Square Garden, but I think
Bob won those other two. Do you
remember the booing at Shibe Park
when Angott got split decision in
their last fight? The gamblers were
