Smith WHEW Fred Pulton beat Willi - Mwhu alt around Ik rim here recently, he created a new angl In th heavyweight altuatlon. I'p to that time, Fulton waa very much out of the running wher the championship waa con earned. Havtne; been knocked out In 2S seconds, more or leas, by Jack Dempsey, Fulton waa a down and outer. Then Median came alone and calned the decision over Dempaey in one of i our many 'benefit aeaalona. Fulton, more likely throuah the shrewdness of somebody else rather than of himself, waa "planted " .on the I'aclflc coast. It came time for another benefit per. formance. and who appeared ao avnll- ati tt Jul tun mil iln I'tirt p-""-"-'' "p'uhonhad, everything to win and nothing to loae. If beaten by our local lad. he waa only another atep down the ladder. If he won, he would be In a position ot seek a return engagement engage-ment with Dempaey. The Mlnnesotan won. He wee ao far out In front there wasn't any ar. guinent. 1 And today . he can not only talk about going back at. Dempaey, but he can get a hearing. In ehort. you will hear a lot of folke wondering whether It waa all. an accident or whether Dempaey can repeat th doe and knock hi man out. I'm Inclined to believe that Dempaey Demp-aey would win In a return match, and again by a knockout. Not necessarily, however. In a round or any fraction of a round. Knockouta of that aort ar more or lea accidental. That la to ay, Dempaey Demp-aey could not guarantee a much apeed acaln. Kulton would likely b more cautious, and aH that. But Dempaey ought to win. r"ulton. for all hla eaay victory over Meehan. demonstrated that he haa no defense. He baa a had habit of ahovlng out hla Jaw aa he leada with hla left, and It a a fair target. Dempaey carrle punch where Meehan ha nothing of the aort. And Minnesota Kredlook to ha a glaaa Jaw. II may b deserving of a return engagement, but I doubt whether It will get Mm very far. |
