ing that South America can raise
just as husky sons as her sister
nation of the north, and proof that
, the Latin can fight just as well
with his fists as he has with his
brain.
Every country in South America
wants a champion, and if she can't
raise one for herself this year she
will be perfectly willing to let Ar-
gentina do it and bask in the re-
flected glory.
In Argentine itself there still is
a considerable disposition to doubt
Firpo’s rating as a really great
heavyweight, despite his victory over
Willard. The Argetnines know per-
fectly well that Firpo has met a lot
of stepups, and they know Dempsey
has met a lot of men far better than
the average fighter who has been put
up before Firpo.
Argentina doesn’t want a news-
paper champion. She wants a real
fighter, who can get out anti win
the heavyweight crown and hold it
against the best of them. During
recent months Firpo has got to look
better and better, and now a lot of
Argentine fans will concede him a
chance against Dempsey where they
wouldn't have give him a lookin
