By Jen Willard Fermer Heavyweight phajnaien JACK DEMPSE7.il a tofKfie ftghtiiir msnT ' 't i I found that out. and so hare the others who faced htm. Many of the sporting writers, though, have made him out as absolutely invincible There isn't ny such man. 'While, the champion is at the peak of his strength, there always is Dempsey. certain I r baa such a left hand, but with hla dlatlncllva 'style of awayfng; from aide to aide, he makes unusual, use of both hande. Hia blows are hooka Inatead of clean, airtight, a hots. But they are dangrous. Jack lmpsoy la fast and strons and he htta hard. I don t want to tell anybody that he Isn't formidable. There are po'nta to hi dlaadvantisir. I thoug-ft. which ought to be considered 1 In figuring- ih odd. First of all. he la champion. That la a burdn to carry Into the ring, even Ihourh Ir makes him a favoj-ttt- aom young chap coming along who will aome day put him out. Dempsey landed nn my chin In a breakaway In the first round of our fight at Toldo, and from them on I was In a daac. I don't know what happened, except what s pacta tors to!d me. But It seems that T landed one on him In the nest round which nearly put him out, except that I wasn't able to finish him. That would show that he can be hit and can . be shaken. HIS BLOWS DANGEROUS. The best aaset a fighter can hare. I think, la a good left haod. That cornea In alwajs to aiab the flrat ruiih of i he other man's attack. In popular Judgment. Th champion Is worried at the thought of the stake he haa to lo. My mind kept going hack to that when 1 had the till, and It la nniurai lor anyone. UT JOHNSON WAS BETTCR. Then, being tho rHampton. he la surrounded by a crntAd, and that la hard for ateady training. I don't mean training Just before the. fight. But champion a grow care leas. The glimmer of th lights eape their power. Iempey haa had omy two fiehia in hla four years with the title. A msn needs at least two fights a year to keep in condition, and three or four wouldn't hurt him. The teet man I ever fougrht waa Jark John eon. I'd like for anon to nam a aingte quality h lacked for perfection when he aas In hi prime, no had everything. His best wa hotter than the beat of cither JJemp V or Kirpo. My ad vie to Klrpp Is to be careful with Iempy the fimt two or thre rounda Dempsey makes a lightningr start, but 1 don't think he can so for a long- grind. Be a stone wall te Dempsey e charge Then knock him out If you I ran. I tCopyrlght, l:a. SEA Service, lac.)
