is now recognized. by devout

This is quite a contrast to the
perpetual motion man who a de-
cade ago was the toast of the box
ing world as welterweight cham
pion. At one time he held the
welterweight, lightweight, and
featherweight title all by himself.
He also fought a draw in a battle
for the middleweight champion
ship.
Today, Armstrong weighs a
hefty 165 pounds, 20 pounds above
his best fighting weight. During
his reign as champion he fought
| the best men his size or near his
size. Today he is battling his most
efficient opponent, the devil. One

scheduled to go on a nationwide

Exxard Charles Should Fight Joey
Maxim For Title
The next logical heavyweight
championship match should be be-
tween Ezzard Charles, MIA heavy
weight champion, and Joey Max
i'm, worlds lightheavyweight cham
pion. Both men have taken care
Of every opponent in their paths
during the past year.
By winning a knockout victory
to wrest the 175-pound crown from
Freddie Mills in London, "cream
puff" Joey has more Of a punch
than anyone ever suspected. This
demonstrates that he might be
able to put up an excellent fight
with Charles.
They have met before with
Charles escaping with a narrow
victory. Both men are Legitimate
175-pounders who find them
selves on top of the heavyweight
heap because nobody better is
around.
Who areother possible claimants
for the heavyweight crown? Jer-
sey Joe Walcott who has whip
ped Maxim twice in close decisions,
but lost to Charles for the heavy
weight title. . he's out
Bruce. Woodcock . . who has
ben postponing his scheduled fight
with Lee. Savold time after time
because Of an automobile accident.
1t is this corners guess that Wood
cock is through despite his Brit
ish heavyweight crown.
Savold just another war
horse making good because no one
else is in the ring . not truly
of championship caliber /. count
him out.
Lee Oma and the rest Of the
gang are fighting for the money
not a title at least that is
what their ring performances say.
Did someone mention Joe Louis?
Here is his answer to Charles re-
cent radio challenge:
"I've had enough. I won't come
out for Charles or anybody else.
l think Charles is the best heavy
weight around today"
Ike Williams 4 Bit Premature
Let us all admit that Ike Will
liams is a real lightweight cham
pion who can lick anybody his
size and a lot of fellows bigger
than he is. But we should rush
to add that Ike is going a little
bit too far in challenging Ray
(Sugar) Robinson for the weller
weight championship.
Maybe Ike is a bit excited about
his recent victory over Chicago's

boy who is growing into a mid
