PAUL, Aug. 19.—Mike Gib- bons, leading member of that once famous team of boxing broth believes one of his proteges is des- tined to win the welterweight championship. f Mike’s choice to win the title re- cently captured - by Jackie Fields, is My Sullivan whom Mike trained as an amateur. “All My has to do to win the crown is to make up his mind,” says Gibbons. “He's better 1 ever was. He's game, can punch and has natural ability. All he needs to become a champion is a realization of the opportunity fac- ing him.” Sullivan was barking f0.” a bout with Fields before the new champ hardly had ripped the tape off his hands after snatching the crown from Joe Dundee. He is ready to back up his challenge with what- ever forfeitymoney is necessary. In his last fight here, Sullivan stopped Andy Divodi of New York in three rounds. Sullivan, who is 21, has been a professional three years. He has fought 40 money bouts, winning 16 with a K. O. and losing only four by decision. He has not lost a fight since early in 1928 when Jack McCarthy out- pointed him in Chicago. .- FOUR FOOTBALL STARS MAKE MARK ON DIAMOND CHARLOTTE, N.
