The grand little veteran of the 1ing, Tony Canzoneri, easily proved | himself the best of the present crop | of lightweights when he defeated Lou Ambers in 15 rounds and earn- er ‘his fourth title. Canzoneri also has held the featherweight, light- weight and junior welterweight crowns. Tony regained the championship te 1ost to Barney Ross in 1933 after holding it almost three years. There may be some question of the New York Boxing Commission’s arbitrarily to | zoheri-Ambers bout as for the title | designate the Can-‘ ’any laughed to myself along about | the seventh round becatise 1 knew |that a lot of folks were worrying| about them.” | In his well-conceived plan of bat- | tle Tony stressed the importance of lconservlng his energy and did only what pedaling was absolutely ne- cessary. | He made Ambers fight just the way he wanted him to. For the most part Tony stood in the center of the ring and just kept turnmg; |enough to meet the whirling ad-| vances of Ambers. His tactics made | | Lou do all the leg work and let him | ¢onserve his own precious leg pow- er. | Not only did Canzoneri outsmart Coast Guard cutter Tallapoosa and | and COrleans. Fighting as a flyweight he was forced to give away plenty of weight and reach.
