Louis' eyes narrowed to slits when he saw his opening. That incredible right that flashes so fast the eye can hardly catch it landed again this time flush on the jaw. John Henry hit ths canvas and rolled directly In front of the United Press' ringsids wire. His eyes were as vacant as an unfinished house. His arms and legs were limp. It was then that Donovan stopped the fight, after getting up to a count of five.

"What did they stop it for? They give you three knockdowns in most states." "You were down three times, John," he was told. "Was I? I don't remember about that."
