for twenty rounds Jeffries took a ter-

gloves, although Corbett battered him
around so freely that the big fellow
looked foolish. Jeffs seconds told him
that he was an ex-champlon beyond

Jeff went out to do in the next round.

took a lot of it first and last—was in
bls socond fight with Fitzsimmons.
Th? fight took place in 1902 and Fits
threw nil his cleverness and strength
into the first three rounds. Jaffa face
was badly cut by his blows, and while
Fitz was fresh, the champion looked
Ilk? a novice beside him. But he could
not keep it up, and he could not item
to worrk Jeff to any extent. In the
eighth Jeffs right caught the old
champion in the stomach, his left went
to the jaw and Fitzsimmons was
classed among the has-beens for good.
The second fight with Jim Corbett
wan Jeffs last important fight. In
that fight Jeff showed that he had at
last learned the boxing game. He out-
fought Corbett, th? admitted master
of glove work and foot work, at every
point of the game, and in the eleventh
Corbett went down for the count. This
was Corbett’s last appearance In the
ring.
Just prior to his retirement Jeff
fought a four-round draw with Jack
Munroe at Butte. It was a stay four-
rounds offer, and Munroe staved by
clinging to Jeff all the time. Munroe,
after the fight, claimed he had
knocked Jeff down. As a matter of
fact the big man slipped and fell;
but Munroe boasted of his alleged
triumph until Jeffs anger was aroused
and another fight arranged. They met
in Ran Francisco, and Munroe went
down and out in the second round.
In hla preparation for his fight with
Johnson, Jeffries has done the hardest
training work he was ever known to
undergo. His methods have been pe-
culiarly his own as a rule. He went
in for hear shooting, fishing, moun-
tain climbing and the like, and his
trainers had little to say about what
he did.
It was during a three-round fight at
Galventon in 1191. Fanner Burna was
another of the training squad. He Is
a wrestler of considerable repute, and
not a day of training paused but Jef-
frfes engaged him in a struggling,
hauling, hefting match.
Eight years ago, when Johnson be-
gan to loom on the pugilletic horizon,
he urged his managers to make every
effort to arrange for a fight with Jeft
fries. "Jeffries can’t touch me," was
his boast even in those days, and he
fretted continually over the fact that
until he acquired a reputation, hit
prospects for a championship battle
were but as guazy us the tail of Hal-
ley’s cdnet. He says he believed then
as oonfdently in his ability o achieve
at last his opportunity to battle for
the title as ho did six year* ate, when
the supreme prize was real; d.
"It was not my fights themselves,
but my fight to get those fights that
proved the hardest part of the strus-
gle, Johnson told the Associated Press
In recounting his difficulties in reach-
ing the pinnnacle of his ambition. "It
was my color. They told me to get a
'red,' but how was I to get a rep.
without meeting fighters of clans? But
I made them fight me. I just hept
plugging along, snapping up what
chances to fight ( could grab, until byz
and-by the top-notchers saw that
sooner or later they’d have to take me
on. As soon as I had shown what I
could do. the fight public -most of the
fans, anyway—took sides with me, and
that helped a whole lot.”
Johnson aszerts that he has never
been apprehensive of possible defeat In
any contest he has engaged In. None of
them, ho declares, had any terrors for
him.
His four most important battles
have been fought within the loot year
aud a half, dating from his defeat of
Tommy Bums in Australia, December
26, 1998. Having wrested the cham-
plonship from Burns, ho determined to
meet and defend hl? title against all
comers His fight with Philadelphia
Jack O’Brien, Al Kaufman and Stanley
Ketchel followed in rapid successlon.
On his fights two or three years be-
fore, that had brought him promi-
nence and helped him along greatly in
his career, his contests with 8am
Iangford, the Boston negro,. Joe Jen-
nette. Hum McVey. Denver Ed Martin,
Jim Flynn and others, Johnson lays no
particular stress except to regard them
as so many rungs of his ladder of suc-
cess.
•I'm looking for a fight,” asserted
Johnson, "In which I really can let my-
self out and show the public just what
I can do. That’s one reason why I’m
so anxious to go up against Jeffries.
Johnson’s declaration sustalns ths
judgment of numerous sporting writers
who have maintained for years that the
big negro seldom, if ever, extended
himself, and was capable of striking
harder blows than he has ever deliv-
ered in the ring/ It appears to have
been a general belief that Johnson was
•holding back.” This was particularly
noticeable in his recent fight with
Stanley Ketohel in that bout Johnson
toyed with his man all the way. He
seemed to think the fight a joke until a
slip and a timely punch brought him to
his knees and aroused his anger. Just
what happened next (has never been
clearly known. It was too fast to
watch, and in an instant’s time Ketchel
was on his back and being counted out.
He did not seem to realise what had
struck him, and Johnson himself
seemed astonished at the result of his
sudden exhibition of strength and
speed.
