This quiet spoken Hughes has

rule are a lazy PERCY VILLA
fighters, as well as wrestlers, do
lot, guess most of 'em are a bit
spoiled since they figure that by
working out an hour or so at the
gym, it's enough for the rest of
the day. Maybe it's the managers
fault since they prefer to baby their
boys along and figure that they
mustn't overwork their sonny boys
too much. The trainers have the
same fault, and sometimes agree
with them. Let me explain.
personally think that if a fight
er is to go places, he only should
concentrate on one thing or one job
at the time. I don't recall a fight
er & mean of national rating) who
could be a good fighter, and still
hold down another job as a side
line, or work and use boxing as a
side line. 1t just isn't in the books.
A fighter can only think of one
thing at time. 1 mean, all his
thinking should go to fighting,
training and his opponent. Give
fighter family trouble a week be-
fore ring time and fifty per cent of
his fight is lost without his even
entering the ring.
OF course, years ago a fighter
had different methods of working
out. Five miles of roadwork, work
out for a couple of hours, long
walks, go to the north woods to chop
some trees, or climb hills to ready
his legs. Today if a fighter shadow
boxes around few days he thinks
he's doing something. But getting
back to what boxers do in the sum-
mer when there is nothing around
for them to do, we'll, I'd say in
normal times ninety per cent of 'em
loaf and get themselves out of
shape until fall, and then start
working out again for some fights;
that is, if they have an alert fight
manager who knows somebody who
does promoting.
The wrestler is somewhat diff
ferent from the fighter. He is the
conservative type. He saves his
money the year round and no
splashing or good timing like the
fighters. Most of them are married
family men, and not like boxers
who are busy hanging around mite
spots, etc. Although most of the
wrestlers could we'll afford to vaca-
ton during the dull summer
months, you'll find most of 'em
working themselves in shape for
their fall work.
