Show COULON KNOCKS OUT FORBES HJHE THIRD KENOSHA, Wis., Jan. 22. Johnny Coulon, bantamweight champion of tho world, knocked out Harry Forbes, the former champion in the third round o a scheduled ten-round fight. The end came when the lound was two minutos and ii seconds oia, a right swing to the Javr and counter to the stomach doing the work. Forbes surprised his friends by weighing In at 115, ono pound under weight at C o'clock. Coulon, wearing most of his street clothes, failed to raise the beam at that niark. Forbes never had a look in. He had trained to such a fine point that he was outclassed when ho entered the ring. He made a fair showing in the first round, but by the middle of tho second sec-ond it was evident he would not last long. On two occasions he went to his knees and rested without being hit. Coulon quickly followed hlB advantage advant-age in the third, putting Forbes down three times, once for nine seconds and again for eight and then for a final count. oo |
