' Fight Dempsey, Is
3 ion of McCanlifle-
Undefeated Champ.
. BY JACK MACAULIFFE
Retired Undefeated Lightweight
Champion.
(Written for the Evening Sentinel)
NEW YORK. July 6.—All play and
no work made Jack Dempsey a dull
boy. ,
But even at that he can still lick'
Harry \Vills. Jess \Villard. Luis Firpo'
or any of the others that will step
into his ring.
His fight against Tommy Gibbons
ah0wed clearly that he is not the
Dempsey that walked up and sacked
Jess Willard in the bout at Toledo
four years ago. He hasn't the old
time punch and pep. He never was a
star against a moving object andr
Tommy kept him moving.
\Villard. Fi‘rpo. Willis and the others
will be an easy mark for Jack because
their style of fighting_ differs from
Gibbons. They will. stand stiff and
let him hit them or come slowly in to
Dempsey to take it on the chin.
Gibbons is a skilled boxer. better
than any of the others. He had the
courage to take a few stiff ones for
' the champion. He held on in the
clinches when he needed to and he
ran away when Dempsey charged him.
He planned exactly how to stay in the
ring fifteen rounds with the champion.
I don't think he ever had any inten-
tion of winning—just a. hope that
maybe he could slip over one once in
a while that might send Dempsey
down.
While Dempsey showed he has gone
back some. his other competitors
won't have any better chance to beat
him now than they had before the
Gibbons fight.
