Williams caved in Beau Jack

ever to win the same title three
times.
Cool and collected, Williams
weathered an early furry of blows
by the perpetual motion Jack and

only 80 seconds of the sixth round
to fatten the Augusta (Ga) chal-
lenger.

Keep fighting, Ike" shouted
Daggert above the tumult OF the
crowd.
Jack wanted to fall, but he
couldn't and finally Daggert stepped
in and called halt. Williams had
technical knockout victory.
The battle had been fairly even
to that point. Daggert had scored
it two rounds for each and one
even; Judge Frank Knarsborough
carded three rounds for Williams
and two for Jack, while Judge Harry
Lasky saw Jack win three rounds
and Williams two.
Sitting on his dressing room table
surrounded by well wisherS, Will
liams said Jack never had hurt him

time after the third round" said
Ike. "Once I landed that left hook
I knew it was over"
The experts had been saying Ike
heSd his title only because he never
fought an aggressive challenger. He
proved them wrong in this fight.
Williams said he planned to con-
tinue fighting as a lightweight,
discounting rumors he would cam
paign for Ray Robinson's welter-
weight diadem.
A beaten and detected Jack had
no excuse for his defeat-the second
time he had been knocked out in 81
fights-and said only, Il forgot to
duck that left hook"
He quickly added he was anxious
for another crack at Williams and
that of course I'll keep on fighting
Fighting is my life"
Both weighed 1874 pounds.
