nectlon is' Dempsey‘s habit of doing
ad work with both arms held on a
level' with his ears. Instead of logo
sing along with arms at his side he
holds them in hitting position and
goes through the movements of
shadow boxing.

'The purpose of this. obviously. is
to strengthen the- shoulders. The
longer a fight goes the greater the
strain on the shoulders. Arms that
were feathery in weight. in early
rounds become leaden-like after the
tenth or twelfth round. A fighter
rcparcd to meet this burden

An even more reliable guide to
Dempsey's private notion as to his
next opponent is the alertness with
which he greets any mention of
Tunney or the fights which Tunney
has had recently

"I understand he is a counter
fighter?" commented the champion.
“I hobo he is. I like to fight fighters
who wait for me to lend. "
